In a recent thread Martin L mentioned the possibility of looking at platforms for XS that run headless. That got me thinking about soekris boards. Although usually targeted towards routers, soekris boards are quite well tested in the field under extreme conditions. I've used Soekris for Wi-Fi routers, Asterisk, etc.
Has anyone considered looking into that platform? The latest board has 433 to 500 Mhz Geode LX , four 10/100 Mbit ethernet ports, up to 1 Gbyte DDR-SDRAM main memory and uses a CompactFlash module for program and data storage. It can be expanded using a MiniPCI type III board, a hard drive and one or two low-power standard PCI boards.
