So, I honestly haven't been paying enough attention to Sheeva and Gumstix. What does everyone think about hacking on both of these? Which one is the easier platform to develop on/for? While Sheeva is substantially faster, Gumstix has more interesting expansion cards. I'd love to hear some opinions. 

Thanks,

Although, once this all works, I want to by a bunch, rip the board out
of the plug module, stack them up (they have four nice pre-drilled
holes for stacking) and have a little Plan 9 cluster. Not as nice as
Lucho's gumstix cluster but gumstix are so small I can't see them, so
I like the sheeva better.

I'll need a nice 5V power supply that can drive a whopping 5W per
sheeva, should be doable -- 16A for 16 nodes.
