ThinCan DBE63

The DBE63 is an upcoming product that uses the AMD Geode LX design found in the DBE61 and DBE62 with a VIA VT6122 Gigabit Ethernet controller. The prominent differences from the other products in the product line are DDR1 SO-DIMM memory module slot instead of soldered on-board RAM, CompactFlash slot instead of NAND flash, existence of a RTC battery, and a line out connector.
