It looks like a Lantronix (http://lantronix.com http://lantronix.com) XPort, which can be had for much less than $200 from various electronics suppliers. For example, I just found the XP1001000-03R variant for $51 (qty. 1) at Arrow.
As far as the product being designed for hobbyists - hmm - it doesn't really have that feel to it. I think the intended market is more along the lines of one-off or low production volume industrial control hardware, test equipment, etc. One use I've seen documented was as an out-of-band control channel on a very high end FPGA board.
- yawniek 16y agoi can not recommend this unfortunately, as the devkit was far from easy to use. i could not get any scripting language running on it and generally the documentation was really sparse. that was 1 year ago.but if you are an ulinux pro it is certainly a good choice!
