It surely sounds like an interesting idea (especially since the hardware is relatively cheap - at the moment, I'm working with Soekris boxes which work nicely, but obviously are in a different price range).We have been having scores of mail on hardware. AFAIK, Linksys WRT boxes are Broadcom reference design. Versions of Linux with approriate software to run on the box has also been created - OpenWRT, Sveasoft etc. Why not create a LEAF implementation (MIPS based) on the Linksys boxes? This way we will get cheap hardware $50-60 instead of $150-250 for PC compatible boxes.
Do you have any specific information on availability and pricing of a "devel-kit" for those things? I mean, it seems somewhat unlikely to me that the boxes themselves have everything one needs to deploy a new OS on them. Time permitting, I'd be willing to play with it, but I really wouldn't want to have to reverse engineer half of the box just to find out how to copy the OS onto such a box. Finding the right drivers and getting them to work might be hard enough anyway...
