Exynos based quad-core developer boards, starting at $69

Too bad none of these various hobbyist boards come with socs that support gigabit and sata. my $400 512mb single core synology nas is very jealous.

Can someone clear something up for me? Are these chips comparable to the one in the Raspberry Pi? And are these developer boards are vastly more powerful than the Pi?<p>I'm not trying to start any arguments, i know the real purpose of the Pi and the usefulness of it, especially with the GPIO pins but i was just curious.

Wouldn't mind a larger board that exposes a number of pins for GPIO, I2C, SPI etc. from the SoC. I'm using the SoCs at www.gumstix.org with OpenEmbedded Linux for rapid work related prototyping.

Just curious, is this stuff open source? Meaning, I use them for commercial production and I won't be sued for just using these boards(assuming I don't infringe on anything else)? Just curious.

I see it starting at $89.

This is the SOC in the Nexus 10 right? Is someone working on a linux port for the N10?<p>How's the video acceleration on this? I need to start a blog. I read like 2-3 hours worth of ARM news once or twice a week trying to track down the best HW/SW/price combination for a simple dumb XBMC-upnp frontend.<p>The Rockchip devices have pretty crap support, though AMLogic released some sources that might help. Allwinner is finally making progress via AW's CedarX, though it's apparently still sufficiently buggy and they're back at the mercy of Allwinner.<p>I've yet to see much about the Samsung setup though. I love the Exynos and would very happily spend another $100 in an attempt to find the right thing.<p>That having been said, there are ~$50 versions of the HDMI stick that have powerful Cortex A9s in them that make these look over priced.
