It is my understanding that these first boards are intended for the HO hobbyist, so your initial choices would be for any motorized item pulling about the same maximum amperage as a typical HO locomotive.  I don't know what BlueRail Trains will say is the limit on these first HO boards, but I intend to do a Lionel handcar, perhaps even a Beep if it is within the HO amp limits.  I assume a handcar, trolley, speeder,  or superstreet vehicle would be a good choice for these first HO boards.

Perhaps so - I've been in contact with them and they told me they were working on the O boards - they initially designed the technology for O - so perhaps it's both.  

I could be wrong, but I seem to remember them saying that although they have the technology worked-out for O gauge, the mass production will be for the HO hobbyist first.  We need to hear from them -- perhaps someone from BlueRail Trains will chime in.  I am really looking forward to an affordable wireless remote control, that is simple!!

I 100% agree with you - looking forward to a scale option that is simple.  These DCS / Legacy options might work for some - but it's not for me.
