Qi-Hardware, the community that brought us the Ben NanoNote handheld
computer, have just released their next piece of all-out free and
open hardware: the AtBEN+AtUSB wireless dongles. Aiming for a solution
that works without proprietary firmware blobs, WLAN compatibility was
abandoned. Instead the project went for simpler, yet more open 6LoWPAN
technology.

Both atben and atusb are now available at Tuxbrain :)

https://www.tuxbrain.net/shop/index.php?cPath=347

AtBEN               29,50 EUR
AtBEN-AtUSB Combo   59,00 EUR
AtUSB               41,30 EUR

Cheers Werner Almesberger and Tuxbrain for getting things this far!
