I put in a pre-order for 3. Looks like they're not using atheros, but it'll be worth taking a look, and would especially be worth contacting them about some sort of partnership considering that they're a local company.

Have you folks seen the Tessel 2.0?

substack just informed me that the new one is no longer using the weird lua node thing.

Instead it's actually wifi router hardware running OpenWRT with an ARM build of node.js

We should pre-order one and build think about making a simple node.js sudo mesh module that makes it super easy to run a node.js app on the mesh from a tessel device

It would be pretty easy to make it possible to do:

npm install -g pplsopen

# configure peoplesopen.net adhoc wifi, grab static IP from meshnode-database and set up babel
pplsopen wifi enable

# same but on ethernet
pplsopen ethernet enable

Definitely a side-project, but could be pretty easy depending on how standard their OpenWRT install is.
