Hey Tony!

 TL> So, no negative reports, plenty of positive ones.

Excellent!  I like when that happens.

 TL> The extre speed will be handy, but the increase in current draw
 TL> rules out a lot of "generic" power supplies.

Good point.  From my limited understanding of the current situation I am
inclined to either wait or look at a different system ... if indeed it matters
any at all.

 TL> The Pi 1 and 2 series will happy run from off the sheld DC-DC

Bonus.  I have a 25W DC/DC (9-32 VDC) collecting dust at the moment that should
 have no problen powering one of those.

Life is good,
Maurice
