The Udoo are a lot more powerful, 4 cores plus a SAM chip (Arduino Due) with
proper ethernet, USB, audio, wireless, SATA plug etc. Depends what you need, but
if you need things like lots of GPIO, including analogue, or reasonable
networking and the built in audio is OK for you then their price (3 times a Pi)
isn't so bad.

Also, I keep running into the lack of documentation on the Pi, it looked good at
first but ..., while the GPU interface on the Udoo has a lot more docs.
