The SheevaPlug is cool, but it seems like the newest ones have gone a slightly different route and thrown everything you could possibly want at it - wifi, bluetooth, audio, etc?
That's all nice stuff, but just adds to the power and price for what should be a dirt cheap, almost disposable, piece of equipment.
Though I would definitely appreciate gigabit ethernet on the beaglebone...
I think so too - you normally don't need wifi etc. on such a device. The one I use is the original first one and I wouldn't use the newer ones. If I remember correctly they even need active cooling...
