This was announced today at the Maker Faire in San Mateo, California.

http://blog.arduino.cc/2013/05/18/welcome-arduino-yun-the-first-member-of-a-series-of-wifi-products-combining-arduino-with-linux/

At $69 it provides a lot of capability for web-based wifi projects.
I'm curious about the specs & performance on the Linux side though.

The Raspberry Pi running t 700Mhz is pretty sluggish when you run the graphical desktop, but if you run it at 850Mhz without the GUI, it's not too bad.

Raspbian- which is based on Debian. (probably where the -ian comes from in Raspbian)

I don't boot to the graphical desktop though, it's too slow even at 900Mhz.

I'll wait for the official release. My medical insurance doesn't cover bleeding edge injuries Wink
