Hi Guys
If anybody can source the above mentioned item I woudl be interested in buying it for a client install I am about to do
it seems that the client mode on these units is fairly well documented
http://openwrt.org/ClientModeHowto
and I think this will be a good option for people connecting up
so if we can find 50 of these units im sure that there would be a possiblity in using them for backbones and client nodes alike , given that they are running embedded linux and are stable as all hell
they can run, dropbear, quagga-bgp, iptables and dnsmasq which is most things needed for a network AP, client, backbone
be aware that they will require some linux experience to configure

Steve has just bought two of these, to develope a cheap AS router. I'm not sure he is aware of the versioning issues do you have details ?
foudna version 1.1 on ebay
means I can use less experimental firmware
it is intended for a client install
2.2 is good to go!
By the way people, if you wanna get aboard the OpenWRT craze, hardware version 2.2 is usable with OpenWRT
I haev heard through the rumour mill that steve got the v 2.2 working just fine
