Lightbulb NI MyRIO, cheap cRIO alternative?

Are there any teams out there that have invested in/messed with a MyRio?
What are it's limitations for robotics? I'm thinking of getting one to build my own little robot at home, considering that it is a lot cheaper than getting the regular competition FPGA, along with the fact it is programmable through labview- would it be capable of running the code used to drive the jaguars and other competition appropriate motor controllers? How much work would it take to get the MyRio to run somewhat like the cRIO in terms of interfacing with joysticks and the use of cameras?

I do have a Raspberry Pi and Arduino, but being a labview programmer for the team, I think the MyRio could be a cheap, yet very effective tool for working on/teacher labview code.
If anyone could help me gain a better understanding of the possibilities/limitations of the MyRio I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks,
