hey there Ozkan - I am hacking on getting this working in my minimal
spare time.  there are a couple major issues i've run into:

1) not really full featured u-boot environment, no usb boot support for
example

2) flaky microSD support (had to try out several different cards to find
a working one from sandisk)

3) network stack w/in u-boot has been unstable (unable to tftpboot
images due to timeouts)

the board does have some potential though - but it is not plug-and-play
at this point.  having said that - the up side is there is ton's of
opportunity to make an impact on getting support for this device working
in the freebsd-arm community :)

cheers,
-pete
