For learning to use the dsp
it might be easier to get a plain dsp board
like one of TI's/spectrum digitals dsk6414 or similar

The dsk boards
6414 for fixed point
6713 for floating point
can be programmed and debugged directly from code composer studio
which makes it a bit easier than developing for the dsp on gumstix.

Still have a lyrtech sdr (software defined radio) board to bring up sometime
for some of the lecturers(if they can make their mind up on which band to
run in).
