I was fortunate enough to receive my Arduino Yún earlier this week! It really seems like a great board, at a great price. To have Arduino, Linux, Wifi, Ethernet and SD storage all on the same device, is convenient! Below are photos from the unboxing of the Yún:
The package, straight from Europe. Not a lot of fanfare, but that’s okay:
There were three things inside the packaging, the Arduino Yún, the invoice and a ‘HACKED’ sticker:

And the back of the box:
More box photos:
Inside the box is the Arduino Yún, a little booklet and the normal Arduino stickers:
I wish I had taken a better photo, but the Arduino Yún has each pin labeled on the side of the pin, instead of on the board. It is much more clear which pin is which:
The board has more LEDs than the Uno and still has an LED on pin 13:
On this photo, you can see the Yún reset button (bottom left of this photo/board) and also the external Wifi connector (bottom right):
Ethernet, USB/charger port and the USB port. Very nice to have on-board. They are slightly hidden,but this side of the board has the WLAN reset and 32U4 reset buttons:

Entire back of the board:
Another detail photo of the back:
The bottom of the board has the micro SD card. Also nice to have built in:
I’m very excited to get started using the new board, especially since it has Linux on-board. Let me know if you have any questions in the comments below and look for more Arduino posts here in the near future.
