By the time you get your RPi, your board to connect the Arduino, and the Arduino itself, you've blown through the price difference between the boards. The BBB's SoC is designed with IO and industrial control in mind rather than being a repurposed set-top-box SoC like the RPi. It's weaker in the video department, but *way* stronger for most other things. For networking-specific tasks, however, you might be better off getting an older wireless router with full open-source support, or one of the cheap dev boards based on a MIPS network routing SoC. --Levi /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
