Count me at least half way in - EOMA26 could be just a modified version of SoM2 board - which I'm happy to say I now have 3 copies of expeyes derivative, but
with 6 repairs that need to be done as well boot something + any other mistakes not found yet.

Remember slapin also has A13 board - and I got a derivative of his with added SODIMM + patch panel 
connector but haven't released yet - just not enough hours in a day to get anything done these days :(

I have a quad PIC board as well ready each capable of full 40 MIPS and 64 pins each
and fitted to 200 pin SODIMM connector. I got it manufactured for doing parallel
computing/3D graphics controller work - but not release anything yet (NO time for ANYTHING :( :( :(  )

(All boards in KiCAD and is released or to be released under full GPL)

ok made a couple of mistakes, to be corrected, this is a draft layout.
 expresscard pcb size is 26.6 x 63.6mm (!).  i've added PWM to EOMA26
because it can be used for backlight.

irony, huh? EOMA26 will be perfect for the A10S, A13 and... well, i
can't tell you what the name of the SoC is nor the company doing it
but it will be ultra-ultra-ultra low-cost yet capable of running full
multiprocessing OSes... and it'll be fully FSF-Endorseable.  but,
let's not get carried away, it's still in concept phase, stick with
A10S and A13 for now.

does anyone know of any other SoCs that would suit EOMA-26?  i've
listed the TI AM3389 already
http://elinux.org/Embedded_Open_Modular_Architecture/EOMA-26

also, would anyone like to _make_ an EOMA26 CPU Card?  using e.g. the
A13 it would be absolutely trivial.  hell, there might even be an
Atmel or ST CPU which could fit.  the only thing is it has to be
capable of driving up to 1280x800 LCDs.
