Take a look at SeeedStudio: https://www.seeedstudio.com/fusion.html Just recently they have now started manufacturing the x15, BeagleBoard xM and BeagleBone Black's.. Along with their existing Green product.

[beagleboard] Manufacturing a BeagleBone Blue variant
Hi all, I'm working on developing an robotics SBC (based on BeagleBone Blue), but with some mods: - add 2x ethernet port (in addition to wi-fi) - add input/output protection - add additional serial I/O - swap barrel jack for micro-USB - redesign connectors/LEDs/buttons for enclosure - change UFL antennas to board traces - change eMMC to 16-32GB - change board shape slightly ...which make it impractical to just design an adapter board for the Blue. I wanted to seek advice from the BeagleBoard team on the best/cheapest way to manufacture a board like this in smallish quantities (100-1000), and if it makes sense to pay for assembly, are there any companies you could recommend? Also, are there any PCB fabs you could recommend? I use PCBWay for prototyping, but I'm not sure if it's sensible to use them to manufacture a product. Thanks guys!
