I was going to say, the only downside was the lack of sata..

Appears to be on amazon and other places.  2G ram with 16GB eMMC or 4GB
ram with 32GB eMMC.  Looks pretty nice, although USB2 only, and no SATA.
Does have uSD though it would appear and a decent amount of eMMC storage.
Nice HDMI 2.0 support too and gigabit ethernet.
