Lately I've been trying to find a low cost (<$50) Linux device to use in a project. My only requirements are Wifi, USB (host), and a small form factor. Don't need a lot of ram/flash/etc or any video output. I've been really surprised by the lack of options. The ASUS WL-520gU is around USD$30 but is a bit too large. The Fonera 2.0g (€35) would be perfect, but it's not available in the US.
Another really cool (tiny!) looking device is the Ubiquiti Ministation, but unfortunately it doesn't have USB and therefore isn't a choice for this project.
For when you need more power, there are a lot of cool options such as the BeagleBoard and GuruPlug http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/t-guruplugdetails.aspx http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/t-guruplugdetails.asp...
