Mick, The prices may be similar, but the capabilities are way different. 1GHz dual core processor, 2GB onboard flash plus microSD slot, HDMI for audio and vidio and more. It can run ubuntu, their own linux or android. More interestingly, if had 7 analog in (1.8v max is a challenge), 65 GPIO, SPI, I2C, 3 serial ports, 4 timers, CAN bus (all at 3.3v) and can stack up to 4 expansion boards.
