is a link to the new TI omap 3430 development platform. 800x480, can run anything, with a keyboard etc. etc.

Very expensive though (it's a development device, not a consumer device), although it's interesting to note that the version without 3G is $250 less than the one with.

I would like one, but (due to the price: $1150 non-3G version) I think I'll wait for the Rev.C Beagleboard anyway..

It's not a complete system, but for only $200 it's definitely worth a mention:

My issue with the Overo is that you're really not getting the same bang-for-buck as you are with the Beagle Board. It's smaller, sure, but you gotta deal with the expansion board if you really want to use it and you only get an OMAP3503.

You are right . Perhaps I should have compared the two before posting... Too much coffee + free time is not good for me.

When I look at that thing, I immediately remember my TI speak n' spell I had as a kid.
