Platform suggestion: Iomega iConnect?

Hi all

Has anyone entertained the idea of loading the plug version onto an iConnect?

It struck me as potentially feasible because it runs the same Marvell processor as the SheevaPlug, has the same 512MB flash memory (but only 256MB RAM), but sports 4 USB ports, GbE, and 802.11g.

Console access is available (see http://doip.org/iconnect_console), although you'd likely void the warranty if you loaded another OS onto it (or even before that, cracked it open to plug in the console cable).

Thoughts?

Definitely doable!

Amahi works even in the dockstar nowadays, with even less resources (128M ram).

Yeah, the warranty is a pain.
