It's a little more useful than a normal Linux system. It's small, low power
ie. Battery/solar operable, a standardised platform and has accessable
gpio. As such it's a fixed target driver-wise, and you can interface Frank
with the outside world easily eg. UAV design - LOGO turtle on steroids.

Hi Jecel

first port a version of Smalltalk to this system.
One of the fun side-projects done in the early part of the Squeak system was
when John Maloney and a Berkeley grad student ported Squeak to a luggage tag

The Squeak VM used in the new OLPC machine should work just fine on this
board on top of one of the Linuxes that have already been tested on it.
