Re: CPU module recommendations

To be honest the best systems out there are pretty
much like the crusoe system that charmed.com has.  

Crusoe boards typically range 500-800 Mhz with audio
and 10/100 available either built-in or as daughter
cards.  These systems are giving reports of 11 hours
of use on a camcorder battery.

We had a recent headmount break through in video too. 
MicroOptical has a model SV-3 that is 640x480 color
for  $1000.  I think it's either 6 or 8 bit color, but
uses only 1W of power.  It just clips on a pair of
regular glasses frames.

I think that's the general run down.
