It needs a full-time Internet connection to keep working, and must 
constantly "call home" to the servers in California for approval to do 
anything.  The development version of the Imp will have free support, but if 
you design it into a commercial product, there will be an annual fee 
required.

Sounds kind of squirrelly to me (the language it purports to use is yet 
another variant of C, called squirrel).  If the language is "C-like", why 
not just use C?  These people are getting too cute for their own good.

I was going to play with one, but the full-time Internet access requirement 
made it road-kill.  Insert your own "nuts" joke here, I'm from California, 
so I get a free pass.
