Did you guys know about this?

Back when NEC announced that they were integrating the Compute Module 3 into their displays, they also announced that there would be a 16gb CM3 available from them!

Starting at 19:25 in:

All of the sudden I am having visions of a Kite AIO Game Boy Zero with a 16gb NEC CM3 built in!

it could be the interface board that has the storage on it?

*EDIT*

i scrolled down and the storage is listed in the CM3 section

I found some more info on it. The UK site has basic info, but no price, but I found it on the US site for $85.

I can't decide if that is a good price or not.

Oh, there is also an official brochure at the bottom of that page.

From what I can tell, it's 16GB eMMC. So basically, same specs and performance as a regular CM3, but with 16GB onboard storage rather than 4GB.

Since the regular CM3 is $35 - 40, and you can buy 16GB microSD cards for way less than $50, I'd say it's probably not worth it. Although it looks like you may get an adapter board with the NEC version, which might be useful?
