I know this isn't the proper "forum", but another consideration, in
addition to Linux is CE6.  With Microsoft's release of the kernel
source, and getting PB (or the equivalent) for $1000, it could make it
possible to put CE6 on a new flashboard.  I have NO idea what the
licensing is like, and MS may well have thought through that one anyway
and killed the ability to do so - but it is a possibility.

Personally, I'd rather have Linux - but some may prefer CE, and the
ability to reflash the J7xx makes it interesting.
