Products
Gumstix currently has two product lines: the Texas Instruments OMAP-based Overo series and the Marvell XScale-based Verdex Pro series. The tiny Gumstix Overo COMs are 17 mm x 58 mm x 4.2 mm (0.67 in. x 2.28 in. x 0.16 in.) while the slightly larger Verdex Pro series COMs, about the size of a stick of gum, measure 80 mm x 20 mm x 5.3 mm (3.15 in. x 0.79 in. x 0.21 in.). Gumstix products offer a wide range of functions including OMAP, PXA, microSD, Bluetooth and 802.11g wireless interfaces, synchronous and asynchronous serial, USB, 10/100 Ethernet, RS-232 and more in a very small form factor. The company provides Linux for the OpenEmbedded build environment.
Gumstix products have been used in various commercial, educational and hobbyist projects such as power management metering devices, medical devices, security and personnel management products, wireless and hand-held products, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and robotics.
Gumstix products have no printed documentation but are supported instead through several different forms of online documentation, such as articles, FAQ lists, a user-maintained wiki and a mailing list archive.

“We are the products of editing, rather than of authorship.”

“The reality is that zero defects in products plus zero pollution plus zero risk on the job is equivalent to maximum growth of government plus zero economic growth plus runaway inflation.”
—Dixie Lee Ray (b. 1924)
“It seemed there was a sort of poisoning, an auto-infection of the organisms, so Dr. Krokowski said; it was caused by the disintegration of a substance ... and the products of this disintegration operated like an intoxicant upon the nerve-centres of the spinal cord, with an effect similar to that of certain poisons, such as morphia, or cocaine.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
