  1. Re:Crack-influenced flash prices... by skinfitz · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I was thinking the same thing - reminds me of Apple RAM pricing. Obviously the thing to do is buy it without the CF if possible and get the CF cheap elsewhere.

    Here are some ARM based boards to compare:

    Here is a similar Atmel board but this is only 8 bit and $153. Atmel Ethernut Board

    8MB or 16MB flash with 32MB ram on a 32 bit processor is a good deal in the world of small low powr computers. (but still expensive compared to x86 desktop)
