DreamPlug

DreamPlug

Introduction

The DreamPlug is a plug computer developed by GlobalScale Technologies as a successor to the GuruPlug. It features a new case design, audio in/out, and a removable PSU.

The DreamPlug has replaced the NAND used in the GuruPlugs with a removable internal microSD card.
