Your comment/question confuses me.

There are no "preconfigured" devices as then our project would have 
succeeded - or do I somehow misunderstand you?

There might be some devices in the "plug" category which is 2GHz but 
they most likely is not in the sweet spot of money vs. availability etc.

What I recommend to explore for now is the low-end SheevaPlug.  If you 
decide to go for a newer more powerful model then you may assume too 
luxurious limitations than will be available in final products.
