I don't see why they would lie.

It would seem that it is possible to make something work, but as far
as I'm aware it's not practical/useful, unless perhaps there were
OpenCL support for RasPi and you could rewrite parts of OpenBTS to
make use of the GPU.

In any case, the host is just a small part of the hardware costs and
it would be better to run OpenBTS on something more capable.

You are aware that OpenBTS and GNU Radio are different codebases? I'd
suggest posting questions such as this to the OpenBTS discuss list:

  http://sourceforge.net/p/openbts/mailman/

Cheers,
