Yes, I'm very glad I found it. With the exception of graphics, it seems to deliver on all of the "maker promise" that originally excited me about the raspi, for a lot less, and with no issues actually getting hold of them.

Where are you getting these boards for $22? It looks like they are not manufacturing the device any more. They list a '702 but not a '703: http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/details/?categoryid=&model=TL-WR702N http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/details/?categoryid=&... http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-WR703N-Portable-802-11n-Wireless/dp/B0083Z54P0 http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-WR703N-Portable-802-11n-Wir... http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-802-11n-802-11g-Wireless-TL-WR702N/dp/B007PTCFFW/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1356223829&sr=1-1&keywords=TL-WR702 http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-802-11n-802-11g-Wireless-TL-WR...

  Be careful with model or even revision numbers, always check hardware compatibility lists. very often times the difference between something like a "653" and a "653+" can be an entirely different (and not supported) chipset.

Looks like the price went up to $26 :( You can always try your luck on ebay. Looks like lots of vendors are shipping new ones from HK. The '02 is just the '03 without a USB port and less flash. It can't fit OpenWRT. Edit: Ahh. Looks like they superseded it with the TL-MR3020. The bad news is, it costs $33. The good news is that it has a software readable 3 position switch on the side that does seem supported under OpenWRT. http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-Portable-802-11n-Wireless-TL-MR3020/dp/B006DEBXD0 http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-Portable-802-11n-Wireless-TL-M... http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-mr3020 http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-mr3020
