Looks really cool but I'm slightly disappointed to see that when buying these Compute Modules in bulk they still each cost about the same as a single full Raspberry Pi (Version A). The Compute Modules do have 4gb of built in flash that the Version A doesn't have though.

And an additional 256MB (512MB versus 256MB for the Model A).

  I thought all Pi models were 512MB now since the 256MB CPU part was discontinued by the vendor.

    No - the Model A is still 256MB.

It looks like the module plus the I/O board costs $30 in large quantities. So aren't you really getting pretty much the same deal? I'm sure the modules alone will be cheaper.

  No, from the article it appears the module by itself will be $30. With the I/O board the price will be higher: "...the Compute Module will be available to buy separately, with a unit cost of around $30 in batches of 100"
