I've also been foraying into the world of micro controllers and I
personally, after watching the video and reading their spiel, am super
excited about this!  This is really cool.  It's not exactly vaporware
either.  The software is 95% done.  My only concern is that it appears
to be (since it's ARM), a 3.3v system.  The future is 3.3v, I understand
that.  But many of the current off-the-shelf sensors and parts are 5v
(TTL level).  But there's a lot of stuff that's 3.3v now, and there are
ways of converting logic levels.
