The Arduino Yun is great. Linino adds really powerful and useful features not possible on any other Arduino. I especially like the USB host and the fact that one can easily add a USB camera or audio et
My only negative comment about the Yun is that is rather expensive, and I reckon that Wifi probably has got a lot to do with that. While I like the WiFi too, I can thing of lots of applications for the Yun where that is not really required. So what I'm hoping for is that there will at some point be a cheaper version of the Arduino Yun without Wifi but most of the other features.
Do anyone know if something like that will become available at some point?
Can't wait for that last one. Basically, manufacturers are scrambling to meet the demands of prototypers like us and that means an immense and diverse selection!

Well, I doubt that the Tre will be any cheaper than the Yun. It's just different. Instead of a hybrid of a Leonardo and a MIPS based WiFi router, the Tre is a hybrid of a Leoardo and a BBB, with onboard Ethernet, XBee (headers only) and first the first time, HD video output to connect any HDMI device to have graphical output instead of a web based interface...
though I haven't been to fond of the BBB alone so far...
Why not? Just wondering. I don't have one, but was considering getting one.
Updating the Linux in the flash is a major PITA and mine at least never booted properly from the SD card with an alternate Linux image...
Was trying to use it for providing a user interface for a bunch of networked (actually, RS-485) connected Arduinos instead of going through the pains of using an Arduino with an LCD instead (I started on that before the Yun was available). Ended up using rPi for this instead and since have been playing a bit with using a Yun instead. But I am not very happy with the possibilities I have in a WUI compared to a real GUI..
