Re: TK1 vs TX1

The TX1 is newer and more powerful than the TK1. Yet, it is smaller. The computer is on a board the size of a credit card which plugs into various breakout boards that you can buy or design yourself. The TX1 ships on a mITX sized dev board, but you can get breakout boards that are the same size as it. My roommate is using a TX1 for Michigan Tech's Intelligent Ground Vehicle Competition team. I will point him to this thread to give more details.
If cost isn't an issue, the TX1 is better. It is also on FIRST Choice.
