At NYC MakerFaire and spoke to one of the founders. He was very pleased
on the continued *BSD focus on it.

The PocketBeagle was released on Thursday
(https://beagleboard.org/pocket/) with a similar chipset to the regular
BeagleBones. It should work fine outside of a newer version of UBoot.
None were available for sale, but there is free overnight delivery and
they only cost ~$25.

Side note: I'm surprised to hear how many they sell a month. I mentioned
that having a small armv7 board that was consistent in its chipset, like
with the BBBlack, makes porting efforts much easier to handle.

If anyone devs want to speak with him one-on-one, ping me offline. He
would likely assist on any level.
