Sam, I run TinyBSD with Soekris and WRAP. You can find Wrap boards from 
$80 to 130 $USD.

http://www.pcengines.ch/wrap.htm

In Canada there is an online store which sells you WRAP at $100 dollars 
each board, if you buy at least 10 boards. It is xagyl.com. There are 
other online stores, with lower prices, but I personally never bought it 
online.

In Bostom there is a small computer shop where I bought it at $80USD 
each. Bought 3. Could have had 6% discount if buying above 5 units. I 
can send you this stores' phone #. I don't know if they have a Web site. 
I don't think they do, it is a really small place.

Anyway WRAP is an alternative, check for it. It runs AMD Geode SC1100 
processor. Maybe you can find even lower prices than the $80,00 I found. 
In this canse let us know ;-)
