    It has USB so you can use any number of WiFi devices for it.  That also means you can choose whether you get a 2.4 or 5.8 Ghz signal.

    I have been wanting a low power computer for running a information center with weather, some RSS news feeds, etc. for a while and this looks like it may be a better fit than the Rasberry Pi.  If it can access the Google Play App store, that would be a plus.

    For $49 this I have to try ... The ideas an possibilities are a flowing

    and certainly cheaper than these options!

    Thanks for the linkage Tiger
