Don Park, co-founder of Dailywireless and past president of Personal Telco Project in Portland, says CherryPal is announcing a two watt nano computer.
This is an early announcement but if its affordable, a 2 watt debian box with Wi-Fi could be the PTP deployment platform of choice once we run out of Netgear WGTs.
CherryPal uses Freescale’s new 400MHz MPC5121e mobileGT processor and eliminated all the moving parts normally found in a PC with 4GB of NAND flash memory in place of a regular hard drive, 256MB of RAM, built-in 802.11b/g WiFi, two USB 2.0 ports, an Ethernet port, and a VGA port, with a “tweaked version” of Debian apparently serving as the OS.
No word on a price just yet, but the company says it’ll be the “most affordable on the market” when it ships August 4th.
ASUS has a USB WiMAX dongle for Mobile WiMAX.
The MiMAX Q-Series USB from Airspan (right) is a quad-band MIMO USB dongle for laptops and personal computers that’s now certified by the WiMAX Forum for the 2.5-GHz band. It also operates in nearly every applicable WiMAX frequency from 2-GHz and up to 5-GHz frequencies.
Would a 3650 MHz or 2155 MHz WiMAX client for grass roots municipal wireless projects be wishful thinking?
