Back to the original topic, my interest in the device I mentioned in the first post has waned since I learned a few things:
1) Intel Quark processor is flawed, basically it can't use lock prefixes or there's a chance it'll segfault (Intel released more variants of the Quark and didn't fix this...wtf?)
2) Quark is really a low-performance processor...less DMIPs/MHz than even an ARM Cortex-A7 (1.25 vs. 1.9, ewww)

Beyond me why Siemens chose this thing. Oh well, still going to mess with it I guess.
