Our product roadmap is a personal server which can link with other units to create a cloud network which is decentralized and owned by the users. The user can either store his data just on his own system or have it securely backed up and available on the cloud. The storage coins, Storj, Maidsafe, and Sia are still in early development so our initial product is a Bitcoin full node which can also be used as a full node for other coins.
Our plan has been to go to a custom board to reduce costs by removing unused components and increase RAM when volume is sufficient. The $9 CHIP shows what is possible, as our target retail price is below $100 for a mass market consumer device. By going to flip chip design, where the integrated circuits are mounted directly to the printed circuit substrate with out leads and packaging, the electronics assembly can be a lot smaller since it essentially a single hybrid integrated circuit. 1 year for production delivery is a long time to wait, and other comparable products are likely to appear in the meantime.
The suggestion to develop a Crypti version for the CHIP is a good one, and they are local here in Oakland, so maybe we can arrange to meet.
I have even better option then 9$ CHIP.
Someone's Android phone. They already have it - so it's free.
Just install Crypti Lite there.
