[Balloon] Balloon 2.05g or Wait for 3.0

[Guy van den Berg]

Hi,
I am new to the list. I have been reading through the archives online for a 
couple of weeks.

I am a software developer, mainly working in Java but do write some stuff in 
C. I mainly work on Linux. 

I have recently become involved in embedded software on a project based on the 
phillips LPC2214 (ARM 7).

I want to get more involved in the embedded market and am looking to get a 
start with an ARM based board that can run linux.

The Balloon seems like a good option. I see that the b3.0 prototype boards 
have just been delivered. Should I wait until a b3.0 board is available or 
should I start experimenting with the 2.05g? Are there going to be 
significant changes in the linux kernel from 2.05 to 3.0?

Cheers
