Hi Claudio, Thanks for the hint, I have researched the listed boards already, but havent found the ideal board. I consider arm64 boards as generic computers if one have the skills to solve the unavoidable issues, but i dont have those skills. So i keep looking. Nevertheless: let me know if you happen to work on a board, which could be interesting for me.
