Freescale iMX6 board and SoM

[iso9660]

Hi, Freescale has a pretty good documentation support. Have you considered to create any product based in iMX6 processors?

[olimex]

no, imx6q cost $30-40 Allwinner A33 quad core SoC cost $4

why should we release yet another over $100 imx6 board?
the higher the price of one board is less it sells

having 6000 pages documentation is good, but this do not solve your problems, we spent many months to run Linux on AM3352 despite it have good documentation as the community around Sitara is just around BeagleBone, and all software is locked to TI specific reference design, check their forum how many people ask for help with boards based on Sitara they made and how many replies they get from BB community

Linux-Sunxi is not particular board binded community and quite friendly to anyone who deal with Allwinner SoC

so Allwinner is poor documentationwise, but the low cost of Allwinner SoCs and easy to obtain hardware with Allwinner chips made huge community and overall it's easier to run Linux on custom Allwinner board

Well, IMX6 is much more industrial. And there is much more support on os parallelization/visualization.
iso9660, Check imx6 rex, they've done a nice job with their product. It is open source, olimex might be able to reuse this knowledge.

Because it is virtually imposible to any human to defend the idea that Allwinner chips are robust  enougth to develop industrial applications. Not commenting the fact that they would be phased out in two ir three years. Also, comparing AM3352 to iMX6 is like comparing a lemon to a Porsche. Whell, they both hace good documentation, but the Texas chip is slow like a caterpillar. It doesn't worth the effort.
