Yeah you can't put enough memory in those to make software redundancy work.
Of course the F version is already EOL and I am guessing we will see the modular
version being EOL fairly quickly.

In our case, we're talking about the ASR1002, which is an integrated RP1 with a maximum capability of 4GB of RAM.

The RP2 provides more memory, but isn't supported on the ASR1002.
