Yeah the raspberry looks great.  I was eyeing that before I found out about the Netduino. So many possibilities.

I'll probably buy a Raspberry Pi at some point (tempting and cheap!) but I don't think that will be as much fun since it's not as handy at interfacing with the "real" world.

Any idea when they, Raspberry Pi, will be available again?

[dbeechum]

Nary a one.

This looks promising.

Though I wonder, if we're having to boot up linux every time we want to test something that could make sure some sloooow testing.

I am interested in the Raspberry Pi as well.  Keep us updated if you get one.

I have a couple of arduinos around the house that I enjoy playing with.  I mostly used them for measuring temp, humidity, or keg weight.

What shield or configuration are you using for keg weight?

I used a bathroom scale and a circuit similar to the one talked about on this webpage:

For temperature, I use something similar to:

I didn't use a shield and had to wire everything up on a perfboard.

Interesting idea!  I also breadboard rather than shield in most cases, but I am new yet and haven't soldered any more permanent solutions.  I am working with a DHT11 (I am not sure that I like it much on the netduino, but it works for general humidity and temperature) and standard analogs thermistors for fermentation.  I like the scale idea for kegs too!

I've been working on a networked temperature monitor using the Arduino and DS18B20 sensors. I created the probes using standard telephone cord. You can see it here:

I would love to see the code.  Is it up anywhere?
