Kyle: Don't hold your breath too much. I'm also waiting on the new model as are other folks but it's radio silence on this list. Since I have some applications that require a bit more power than the 5501 but the 6501 is in Limbo, does anyone here have experience with other hardware similar to the Soekris boxes? I'm looking for low power draw and no moving parts.
