 does it have SATA?  if not, then adding a USB Hub ($1.50 of
components) and a USB-to-SATA converter ($1.00 of components) entirely
defeats the object of "ultra low cost" :)

 when comparing SoCs it's necessary to compare the *entire* BOM not
just the SoC's cost.  PMIC, support ICs, DRAM, NAND, connectors -
everything.

 also, we're going to do EOMA-CF either when there is a call from a
client or anyone else willing to pay the development costs or when we
otherwise have enough funds to tackle it.
