And 2W for the CPU - guess something like 5W before you start adding
USB devices.

There's USB for external storage if you need it, and proper gigabit
networking.

The FAQ says 1GB will run 32bit Win10, and they're working on a 2GB
board that will run the 64bit version.  Reckon the 2GB board will run
Win10 32bit quite well.  Although I have an equivalent previous gen
(22nm against 14nm litho) Atom tablet that has faster I/O and video,
which seems a bit odd.
