Yeah, I rejigged that sentence when originally slapping it together and 
forgot to remove 'questionable'.

It was a shame the onboard readily available serial/jtag was removed on 
the Guruplug.  The SheevaPlug makes a great home router[1] or streaming 
radio client[2], but having to remember to carry a separate box to just 
serial into it is a plain pain :-/

Now if I could get a 4GB RAM version, I would have me some low power 
HTTP proxy servers for work :)

Cheers
