The A13-OLinuXino is a single-board computer that does not depend on a nonfree BIOS. It can boot Debian and Android. Android requires nonfree software, but Debian can be used in freedom, if the user does not enable the nonfree repo. I installed Wesnoth and found out that Wesnoth is playable without using any nonfree software. On x86 a nonfree BIOS is needed to boot in most cases.

I think that it is worth starting a Trisquel ARM port.

To get free WiFi one should use the Penguin Wireless N USB Adapter for GNU / Linux (TPE-N150USB) which Respects Your Freedom. The A13-OLinuXino-WiFi should be avoided because it ships with a nonfree Android and WiFi chip.
