For rapid development, an Atom-based x86 motherboard with a cheap (<
$5) Bluetooth USB dongle and a cheap (<$5) USB flash boot disk would
be easiest. Or a $249 complete netbook PC. I've pretty much stopped
trying to prototype small-run projects on ARM, etc. embedded Linux
boards. It's so much easier (and, function for function, cheaper) to
take a COTS x86 netbook and repurpose it.

Hi,

  I want to design a gateway platform for home automation application that
can expose its services to WLAN. The platform should also be able to
support the Bluetooth connectivity. I am thinking to use an embedded Linux
OS to enable it to execute the libupnp (UPnP SDK for linux) application for
service discovery.
Can any one suggest me a suitable embedded linux development board, more
closed to above mentioned requirements.

Regards,
