Look at www.Netburner.com I've used them and they work. See if one
fits.

Thank you for your suggestion.
It took me some time to learn working with the Freescale NE64, and I`m
no expert, so I`d prefer to stick to something familiar for now.
ARM board appear to be great for any demanding futura project i might
undertake, but for now I`d prefer a board from Freescale, or anything
similar to resume learning.

What are the criteria for selecting a board; RAM, CPU speed, OS
support, ... ? I'd describe Coldfire as a semi-marginalized
architecture these days. If you're looking to experiment, I suggest
that one of the [zillions] of ARM boards would be a better choice.

Hi,
I`ve just finished a small project using a Freescale EVB9S12NE64
board, and I can say i`m pretty impressed by the possibilities of such
a cheap board.
I`m new in the wide field of embedded devices, and I`d like to stay in
touch with what I`ve learnt so far, and improve my knowledge, so i
decided to buy myself a board.
I`m looking for something similar to the NE64, with Ethernet etc, but
I`d like to go for something more powerful. A Coldfire board or
something.
I checked on Freescale`s site and came across a business card size
board M5235BCCKIT, seems nice but probably a bit expensive.
My price range is around $200, or a bit more if it worths it.
Do you have any sugestions for me?
Thanks
