Well it is cheaper than my i.MX53 was, and at least the 1GB version matches the ram. Both are Cortex-A8 at about the same clock speed. The lack of SATA is a major minus in my book. That's a shame since the CPU supports it, but they seem to have chosen not to provide a connector for it. The mali 400 video is nice though. So looks nice other than no good way to attach fast storage. It does also seem to be lacking a serial console port. Interesting. I wonder how that works. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
