It costs more then the Soekris 4526-20 and is only slightly smaller in
size.
And the 4526 doesn't need regulated power plus has onboard ata flash.
But this is still an interesting board after all - especially as it has
USB ports and lot of GPIO, which I need sometimes.
USB on Soekris require add-on hardware our pricier boards.
How stable is FreeBSD on ARMv9 already?
I didn't even know that it is running yet.
