I'm trying to get a system set up so that I can do some sensor programming as well.
If anybody does have an interest in one, there is tons of info available at this site.

Wow, they use to cost 35$ for the high-end version (the one with built-in ethernet). I guess a lot happens in a year :-) For the price, I would suggest looking into the BeagleBone to see if it meets your needs.

Yes they are still $35 from adafruit.com that's where I bought both of mine. Also got a fancy case and wifi dongle real cheap.
