Is it the latest Raspberry Pi rival? Created by Compulab from Israel, it actually runs either Ubuntu Linux or Android. Whichever you may choose, the device will be available for its $99 pre-order starting this August. Excited yet? You will be when the wide-ranging specs are explained. The Utilite is powered by the lower-end Freescale i.MX6 system, which the choice of single, dual or quad-core ARM Cortex-A9. With up to 4GB of DDR3 (great news for those of you who can't get enough RAM), 512GB SSD, and an impressive 128GB more with its microSD slot. Hey, for an ARM-based mini-PC you've got to find this awesome.
It is pretty much the size of a paperback book, with dimensions of 5.3 x 3.9 x .08'”. Not only to be used for media playing, the Utilite's other applications could include digital signage, “infotainment”, thin client, or just your new favorite desktop replacement!

Although not certain of the version of Android, it is expected to support 4.1 Jelly Bean in the very least. The Utilite looks like a sure thing, so much I bet all you techies would want to have one even if you don't necessarily need it. Yes or no?
