I guess those who wished that the Raspberry Pi packed more of a punch in certain instances would smile when they lay their eyes on the HummingBoard, since it will deliver a 1GHz ARM v7 processor compared to the Pi’s 700MHz ARM v6 processor. Not only that, it will still be able to fit into similar third-party cases of yore, making it keen competition. Of course, the killer would be its price if it were to be the same as that of the Raspberry Pi, but it is a wee bit more expensive with the base model with 512MB RAM retailing for $45 a pop, where you will have to top up another $10 for the power adapter, while the higher end model that has double the amount of RAM and a faster processor touches the #100 mark.
