These days there are many, as Linus once said, "throw-away cheap" ARM boards out there. Check out BeagleBoard XM, PandaBoard, BeagleBone and Raspberry Pi to name a few. > Would a Cortex-A* chip be valid as development platform? If so I will buy Cortex-A is the newest "family" of ARM Cores (if you can call it that). Cortex-A15 being the newest one and Cortex-A8 being the lowest end. All you have to do is choose a board, choose what you actually want to hack on, and start hacking. cheers --=20 balbi --3uo+9/B/ebqu+fSQ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJQUuicAAoJEIaOsuA1yqREOcMP/1t2rBAv+enZydOJC/Y9p4a3 lp9W9/ednXfVLI3UIugWgoVJg1Cgqtx5qJ0kUdJ7DYsT9Wb27WEjWaaxRWSQdgma SW0mj1xd8DRNTDcuSB8LMB1FyVLE+r/4bsm5mnDItJp0HM5pmFhpSe8SXbHtvCOn TSSZyhPgpORBLpJ4yjMgWvheBRSj8vjsLwKo3MS7n/ekt4N4MR8CBxVyPivonOLo 7FycG47Zod5Voz1Rvbd6xhbhS89LXf4jagRhA4bnfcIIAIKfeiD+Ls1IEBxu1dtD j5kqJxv7q2xc60MP1n4pegE4+C9/UVkXjCzXmseNuKeV0Tq8GXpXLCDvY4lfKf7+ MoIWwT4EBsHRVehlALX9jujk0qCmdMxsAPFE0Np5s4/W2Pbs1b+duhV9h+XnkQL2 L8pIT1bq0V8/6YTsB9yKKuVF9ho2BTfxYOlsM/5Sf/pI58N7zx+BHlpkY50m0ym0 IMJPFwGz33mVt/eo9ZRMKfbJ6XeX4k2L9lU1GyctlccRq9ZzSVVyQjuBYYa3VIxl uEUidGRy4iBO4UpAyRBR3QFLiV0NtE5TrcQX/QzAjsdn648FUPtZSCftubOy8Arj gC2a9QJaFAAvLvjiQV/8/ub1PD1dl6DVKr4V/ahyxwiZM4URw8tOkTPT7x2iywsv fejKPTEYIwdLrMO1XryZ =pjTl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --3uo+9/B/ebqu+fSQ--
