Thought I would share this. I have some friends who have been hacking
with this and thought it may be of interest to the list..
SheevaPlug (
http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/t-sheevaplugdetails.aspx)
is a power brick with computer built in i.e. a very small form
factor.. Its one of a few different Plug Computers but one that seems
to be making some (small) waves (in I grant you, a small community..)
Some uses for example allow it to be a lowcost automation server (with
the addition of a Z-Wave dongle and IR usb (TIRA or UIRT) interface)
- you can then use say an iPhone (over IP) to control devices rather
than learning IR on each and every device... Note hacking is
required.. See
http://www.openplug.org/index.php/resources/accessoriesfor more info
Perhaps useful.. perhaps not.. :)
