[Gumstix-users] Checking potential gumstix purchase for development

[Tom T. <to...@to...>]

Hi all,

I'm working for a non-profit company building technology for developing
world applications. One of our projects is a zero-infrastructure email
device, and we're looking at building a 2nd generation prototype.

We're looking quite heavily at Gumstix because of the ease of
development and power requirements.

We're looking to purchase the following kit to develop with:

* Gumstix Connex 200xm
* Tweener
* Breakout-GS expansion board
* Etherstix expansion board
* Serial Null-Modem cable
* 5v Wall Power Supply
* Screws & Spacers kit

We'd like to be able to:

* Connect over serial
* Connect over Ethernet
* Attach an LCD
* Attach a keyboard
* Attach a battery power supply

Does this configuration make sense?

And how do we go about attaching a PS/2 or USB keyboard? I can't seem to
find much information about this on the wiki or forums.

Thanks in advance,

Tom Taylor
