ST Discovery M4 boards are $20 or under at Digikey, with 168 mhz, 1MB flash, 192k ram, various i/o's etc. There's a $50 M7 board with a touchscreen and SD slot. Did you look at those? Of course it will be great if you can come anywhere near that. I don't know if they have hardware crypto but software should be fine for most purposes. >> I.e. what kind of storage management does it use? > Current versions of 8th are hosted, so they all use the OS facilities. I was wondering particularly about memory management, which isn't an OS facility. I understand about other stuff like files and i/o.
