Hi Michael, I think the new PandaBoard (pandaboard.org) looks like a better value -- it's the same price as the BeagleBoard xM and has pretty much the same I/O, but it has a dual-core ARM chip (Cortex A9 2-MP cores), double the RAM (1G), bluetooth and wireless, and better graphics (up to 1080p and about twice as fast). The only downside is that they're slightly larger (roughly 10x11.5 cm). We're planning on getting some here for testing shortly. -Chris _______________________________________________ tos mailing list [email protected] http://teachingopensource.org/mailman/listinfo/tos
