A lot less expensive than a second CRIO, and it would work for probably 90% of the robots out there without any loss in functionality.
Thats the part I'm really excited about. I'll bet we'll see a lot of practice bots that are an off the shelf wifi router/bridge/whatever and a 2CAN. Can't beat that!
