Interesting: Electric Imp with Arduino (via: electric imp – developer kits)
Posted by jpluimers on 2012/05/28
Electric Imp – that wants to power The Internet of Things using imps – is introducing some really interesting hardware, one of the devevelopment kits combining Arduino and Imp on one board:![]()
Duino: Arduino, with Imp
Featuring an ATMEGA328 processor, this board is compatible with the Arduino Uno but instead of having a USB-serial port on it, it has an Imp socket. You can use a modified version of the Arduino IDE to update the ATMEGA code from anywhere in the world when an Imp is plugged in, and use simple serial commands in your Arduino programs to control other Imp devices.
The ATMEGA will operate standalone when no imp card is inserted.
Dimensions: 72mm x 54mm x 14mm
Power supply: USB Mini-B socket (5v) or 2.1mm barrel jack (7-12v)
Price: $20

Not sure. I’m trying to get some time to experiment with NetDuino/Aarduino in the summer, will follow up then.
