Actually, thinking about it a little more (in other words, my brain 
failed to engage a few minutes ago), that would do the job OK. We'll see 
what the prices are like. The VIA one will be more powerful (faster CPU, 
expandable RAM, etc), and if it has PCI it'll be almost as flexible, but 
we'll see how it goes.

What really interests me about the Soekris board is the ability to add a 
/mini-PCI/ wireless card. They don't have a built-in antenna, but rather 
their own small antenna connector ... so I could put a good antenna 
somewhere, without having to worry too much about where the firewall 
was. Maybe there are PCI cards with that, too, though.
