> RaspberryPi looks like one of the better options. The wifi on the RaspberryPi is full of Broadcomm proprietary-ness. And the lack of case/psu is going to drive up the price. If you really want hardware access you could look at some of the open source hardware boards: Beagleboard, Arduino, Allwinnner A10 and the like. (although I don't know whether the Open Hardware-ness of the Allwinner A10 has been realized.) I'd be nice if openwrt ran on these, but I haven't seen this.
