We started the iMX233 project, the name is OLINUXINO as it will run 
Linux natively.

The goal is EUR 30 single board linux computer.
This is complete open source, open hardware project which is to be 
hosted on GitHub .

The specs are:

- iMX233 454Mhz ARM9 processor
- 64MB of RAM
- 2 USB hosts
- 1 100MB Ethernet port
- composite Video 640�480 pixels, color, with PXP graphics accelerator 
for picture manipulations
- micro SD card for boot and disk storage
- headphones stereo DAC with 99dB SNR
- linear input stereo ADC with 85dB SNR
- UEXT connector
- 31 GPIOs for interfacing including UART,SPI,I2C,PWMs

Although this board will run Linux there is possibility DM-BASIC to be 
ported on it and pre-estimated this MCU should run about 1 Million Basic 
instructions per second, with 64MB RAM available for applications.

The very preliminary schematic is uploaded on GitHub, the goal is next 
week to have complete schematic and routed board and in 2 weeks 
prototypes for the developers.

Cheers Don...
