by coincedence booting from CF is my current mini-project (though I'm working on getting freebsd to boot so I can use it in my car as mp3 player)

I know the series has been mentioned before but the new EPIA boards have CF slots built in (and a PC CARD slot)

They come in 600Mhz and 1000Mhz and are fanless.
I don't have one personally so I cant say of the built in VGA & LAN have plan9 drivers.
(though I doubt it)

LAN : VIA Networking Tahoe VT6103 Fast Ethernet 10/100 PHY-ceiver
VGA : Integrated VIA Unichrome  2D/3D graphics with MPEG-2 Accelerator, motion compensation and duo-view support

But if the PCMCIA works one could stick in a Wavelan.

Here's a place with worldwide shipping
