[geeks] VIA $49 "Neo-ITX"

[Jonathan Groll]

Seems that VIA is going to sell a $49 SBC (to compete with the raspberry
pi?):

"The APC computer is a $49 Android system based on the brand new
Neo-ITX form factor which measures in at roughly half the size of
standard Mini-ITX based motherboards. It features an 800MHz ARM SOC
(VIA WonderMedia ARM 11 SoC) with 512MB of DDR3 memory and 2GB of
onboard flash memory for storage. A modified version of Google Android
2.3 uses up most of that 2GB of flash storage, but there are external
storage options. On the back I/O is a microSD slot and of course you
could hook in an external USB 2.0 drive. "

Cheers,
Jonathan
