It really depends on what your objective function is?  How
important/valuable are various capabilities?

I was very tempted by the $50 price on the Pogoplugs I saw at Bestbuy
last Friday.  (London Drugs was selling them a while back for $40.)

I guess that this is related to Pogoplug dropping hardware products:

Google seems to yield less information than last time I checked.
I think that these have a 1.2GHz Mavell Sheva ARM chip, 256M RAM, 4 or so USB
ports, 128M flash, 1GHz ethernet.  Several Linux ports.
