I was almost hoping they'd be upgrading to a 32-bit ARM chip vs. the 8-bit Atmel. Can anyone recommend ARM boards with similar I/O capabilities to the Arduino?

I was almost hoping they'd be upgrading to a 32-bit ARM chip vs. the 8-bit Atmel. Can anyone recommend ARM boards with similar I/O capabilities to the Arduino? I'm interested in something that you could use for embedded robotics but powerful enough to run a real OS so that you could do real-time image processing.

Adafruit.com have MicroBuilder LPC1343 boards and the Chumby hacker board. And there's always a Beagleboard

  Can anyone recommend a voltage level translator for the Beagleboard? Edit: to interface between the 1.8V I/O of the OMAP and the 5V I/O commonly used by other devices.

This has an ARM Cortex A8, it runs Linux, and it is small enough for embedded robotics applications. http://www.gumstix.net/Setup-and-Programming/view/Overo-Setup-and-Programming/Overview/111.html http://www.gumstix.net/Setup-and-Programming/view/Overo-Setu...
