[arm-allstar] Pi2 wifi question

[Chuck Kraly]

Thanks Doug,
Chris and I have already discussed this. I was just hoping to use the N10
as this is a pelican case 900 rptr and was looking for a smaller footprint.
It is no big deal I just had some time this weekend and after getting the
Pi going (which is AWESOME- boots up quick compared to the BBB), I saw the
N10 and was just thinking. Thanks for all the work also. On another note,
we will be getting a Fusion rptr (price is right) to replace an aging MSF5K
and was wondering how the Pi2 interface would work. Any thoughts?
