The price that I have found out for Beagle Board is $150. It's definitely not too expensive for what it can actually do or act like.

Project Name

Device Support and Testing

Project Description

Testing and support would be taking place for beagleboard. The Beagle Board is a low-cost, fan-less single-board computer based on TI OMAP3530 processor (ARM Cortex-A8 Core ~600MHz + TMS320C64x+ DSP ~430MHz), with all of the expandability of today's desktop machines, but without the bulk, expense, or noise.

BeagleBoard-xM delivers extra ARM Cortex-A8 MHz and extra memory with 512MB of low-power DDR RAM, enabling hobbyists, innovators and engineers to go beyond their current imagination and be inspired by the BeagleBoard.org community.

Kernel and modules are made for beagleboard. The website for the kernel and modules: http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/arm/kernel/beagleboard/linux-2.6.36.1/
