Why?

Why?

You are presuming a certain use case here. I don't think there is a market for this product as a portable, general-purpose computing device. I do think there are a number of other use cases, though:

- Limited functionality, interactive kiosk/infowall type systems - Remote logging and processing systems, particularly for complex sensors - Embedded industrial or robotics systems

by minipc i think it's trying to be a portable PC? 2GB NAND might be too limited for any PC, thus the storage. If it's for a IP STB, you still need storage for media files. without a wireless keyboard/mouse, how can I use it as a consumer electronic device? The rest are actually good example, i wish it exposes more IO pins for robotic and industrial usage, but meanwhile the chip needs to be industrial-qualified, not all tablet/cellphone chips can be used in industrial, if at all
