Open source and open hardware, OS based on OpenWRT (plus plans to support other distros), and sensible enough specs.

Though, I'm not happy that as designed the WLAN antennas are internal. Multiple modules of a single type are not supported either, though they say that might change.

Also, anybody having experience on the distance of convenience between some Ubiquity mesh setup and self-made OpenWRT tinkering? (I've not heard many good voices regarding the latter...)

Specs where?

I couldn't figure out what SoC it has, how much RAM, or even whether it's any better than their existing Omnia.

More detailed specs are at https://mox.turris.cz/en/specification/. The base module has:

    Marvell Armada 3720 1.2 GHz dual core
    512M DDR3 RAM
    1Gbps LAN
    USB 3.0
    34-pin GPIO
…and it costs $29 (board only). It's not supposed to be "better" than Omnia, but more modular, and generally cheaper (depends on what modules and options you choose of course).

Disclaimer – i work at CZ.NIC (not on the Turris team though).
