The problem with the gumstix as a terminal is that
nobody has yet been able to figure why its USB doesn't
work, so though you can get video, it's hard to provide
mouse and keyboard.  Plus Gumstix still don't seem to be
selling the aluminum case, so it's a bit delicate to
lug around the world with you.

The Guruplug Display, on the other hand, isn't an OMAP
SoC, comes with a case, has working USB, and simple 2D
video seems to be documented adequately (or nearly so).
I don't have anything further to report yet, but work
is ongoing.
