> What LinkSys is doing is putting a new device on the market which does not run Linux, and apparently cannot run it.

http://wiki.openwrt.org/TableOfHardware lists number of wireless routers with 2MB flash/8MB RAM as Work In Progress to put OpenWrt Linux on them.

So such memory constains are not a show stopper to run Linux and I doubt that the reduced flash images were the only reason to switch to VxWorks for LinkSys.
