Ok that's huge news. If I understand:

I see a v5 EZB with a USB port.. Yay!

I see the new Intel Joule kit. Looks like the EZB and Joules will bring portable computing to our robots!

Can anyone say what size that footprint is for joule and its price tag?

When will the EZB 5 be available. Can you tell us more about its specs?

@fxrtst I would so love to get excited (because any of this would be a serious boon for my ongoing inMoov project) but will any of this actually come to fruition before I die LOL?.... Not trying to be negative here but after all we are still waiting on the release of a host of other new products that most were announced well over a year ago...

For $400 you don't get any sensor (cameras).

They mentioned Linux & Windows 10 IOT (runs also in Raspberry PI 3)

the specs are good why not a full windows 10 version ?

Currently i use the Intel NUC in a big BOT, from a price perspective i don't see big save.

i'm keeping the Yay feeling for the EZB 5,

so far from the pictures:

it's based on Joule platform, windows 10 IOT i see a USB, i see the external antennas, video port....

Let's keep the fingers crossed.
