Hi everyone,
On one of the robotics groups I'm on, someone brought up the following
consumer device:
Linksys NSLU2
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?grid=35&scid=43&prid=640
Its apparently got a 200 MHz XScale inside, 32 MB of RAM, with a couple USB
host ports and an ethernet plug, and it runs Linux natively inside, and it
is quite hackable.
It should probably take very little effort to get Squeak running on this
machine.
Here are some more links:

Of course, the really cool thing about this machine is the price -- you can
get them new from http://www.buy.com for $80 USD.
Later,
Jon
