Teholabs selected the Eridani development board winners. There were a lot of great project proposals for the board, read them all here.
I am planning on building a custom USB drive that handles at minimum the RSA side of the SSH protocol and preferably the whole process just sending and receiving packets to the host application which passes then directly to the network and sending and receiving text to the host application for interaction.
The basic idea behind this was to still provide a secure connection back to my SSH server (and thus my home network) on an untrusted machine without giving that machine any access to my private key or possibly even the session key.

I’ve been wanting to get an ARM-based mocrocontroller board to get started working on porting Codec2 to a lower cost platform. Codec2 is an open source audio codec designed for low-bandwidth links to enable low-to-zero cost telephony, with obvious applications in the mobile and third-world areas.
There has been some work to try and get it running on higher-end AVRs and PICs, but the lack of floating-point support means we need significantly more fixed-point support to be able to perform the involved DSP calculations needed than is possible on 20MHz 8/16 bit processors.

We’re looking forward to updates on these great projects.
