If anyone is interested in the GPS functions, I summarized the info spread out through the Indiegogo comments into an unofficial NavSpark FAQ here: http://pastebin.com/1f5iXwiT
If you just want the CPU by itself for general use and don't care about GPS, they are now offering 21 boards for $220 with just the CPU, regulator etc, no GPS so that would be $10.50 per board.

I believe they meant to say you get a 32-bit Arduino-compatible board for $19, and at "no extra charge" (eg. free, once you've bought the board) it has a GPS built into it to give you position and accurate time. Unlike any other Arduino-type board at that price that I'm aware of. The Arduino-compatible part of the codebase is also free as in libre (open source) although the GPS library is closed-source.

Thanks for the link - just pre-ordered a -GL set, spec looks OK, at this
price hard to beat.

Perhaps them meant libre rather than gratis?

that is free? The word "free" appears on the video but nowhere else on
the page.
It's free and worth every penny.
