They are claiming: "robust upstream Linux kernel/Android OS and device driver support" "comprehensive support for an upstream Linux kernel (Linaro)"
I'd really like to know what their description of UART is but I can't get access to the documentation. Really hoping it's not 1.8V TTL again. Ethernet on board is a win. U-boot (chainloaded from LK...) might work out of the box with ethernet but I don't think it will take much to make it work.
Nice find.

Hi,
Some people here might be interested in this Inforce board:

It hits a similar price point (120$, but variants said to start at 99). It has same physical dimensions, even down to the mounting holes. Connector arrangement is different though.
LinuxGizmos reports that the software for it is: "[…]based on Linaro’s upstream version." http://linuxgizmos.com/tiny-rugged-sbc-runs-linux-or-android-on-snapdragon-4...
I guess that means that db410c images will run on this one too with little to no effort. As this is built around a QC SoC it of course requires binary only bootloaders though.
Cheers
Thomas
PS: Now that compliance is fully optional and it has the same physical dimensions, maybe it should be considered a 96borad too and be put on the official webpage? SCNR
