My rev 4 CPU cost less than £40 delivered, though that was about 2 years ago, and that puts a TF1260 with a CPU and no FPU at less than a Blizzard 1230 (also without FPU) goes for on eBay.

Cheers for this answer. We have so many options now, it is difficult to decide what to do. Think I will wait and see what the 1200 pistorm costs etc.
