        Just got my RED board this week. This is a really cool looking dev-board. People who appreciate well-constructed and aesthetically pleasing PCBs are really going to like these.

        The quality of construction is on par with a typical beaglebone, but this has all the features I wish the Rev C beaglebones would have.

        -Finally a USB micro type B connector. Thanks.

        -Power button in a better location away from the RJ45 connector.

        -Plenty of USB ports.

        -1G Ethernet Phy.

        -More onboard flash. Nice

        Plus all the other cool MEMs devices.

        Pricey compared to a beaglebone but totally worth if you like really nice boards.

        Question for Octavo: How come you didn’t use the Green header connectors on the production boards? I think the green connectors look cooler.

          Calvin,

          Thanks.  When we did the production run our manufacturer swapped those out with the black ones.  Same functionality but I agree that the green ones look cooler 🙂
