C++ on netduino?
Are you committed to C# if you get a Netduino?

Re: C++ on netduino?
Hi NormLane,
You can absolutely deploy native C++ code to the Netduino. There's a community of Netduino hackers who are putting FreeRTOS on the board, building native code using the Atmel SAM7X sample projects, etc. You can compile with the free GCC compiler (or RVDS) and deploy using Atmel's free SAM-BA utility via USB or Serial. Windows or Linux.
You can erase the .NET Micro Framework off of the Netduino by connecting a jumper wire between the 3.3V header and the gold ERASE pad (which is just below and to the right of pin header "digital 0"). And you can switch back to .NET Micro Framework anytime as well.
The one caveat to C++: while there is rich deployment support built into Netduino, there is no JTAG port for in-circuit debugging. .NET Micro Framework uses USB or Serial for rich debugging.
