Here is the link to the Gateway PCB I created, had fabricated and tested.
http://oshpark.com/shared_projects/qPdmZWG3
Keep in mind that OSH Park charges by the board size, and you get 3 of the boards. This one costs $14.65 for 3 copies.
Since few people need more than one it might make sense for users to pool together and order them as a group. That does mean one person will be responsible for ordering/paying and will have to ship the boards to the others.
Vodden and SirMeili have called dibs on the 2 spare ones from my prototype order.
Please give feedback.
Parts needed:
R1 and R3 - 220 ohm resistor (for RED and GREEN LEDs)
R2 - 470 ohm resistor (for BLUE LED)
R4 - 10K ohm resistor (INCLUDE button pull resistor)
C1 - 4.7uF electrolytic capacitor (4mm diameter - 2mm lead spacing)
Button - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/97
2x4-pin header socket - http://www.ebay.com/itm/10PCS-2x4-Pin-8P-2-54mm-Double-Row-Female-Straight-Header-Pitch-Socket-Pin-Strip-/310727244114
For the Nano socket…I used 2 of the 16-pin header sockets and cut one off with a Dremel to make a 15-pin strip.
Let me know if you have any questions.

It appears that this is for the USB gateway. Do you know if anyone that has done a single board like this for the Ethernet gateway?
I don’t know of any, but it’s on my to-do list.
I do not have an Ethernet module for the Arduino…so if someone wants to contribute one it would speed up that development. Otherwise it will wait until I have bought more of the stuff I need and can then spend money on the “tinkering” side.
Considering I have hiccups with the serial port when I have to power cycle the Vera, I might get annoyed sooner and really work on it.

Thanks. Where are you, I might just take you up on that and send you one

I usually wire things up on a breadboard to make sure it all works, then start on the PCB layout
Shouldn’t take much to modify the current layout to include the Ethernet module.
I was thinking that myself. Five of the six leads used by the Ethernet are common with the Radio and one is unique between the Ethernet and the Arduino.
I have two Ethernet units on order, I’m willing to donate one to the cause for a leg on the PCB Email me with your address and I’ll send one to you when I have them both in hand. Gmail to ClipperMiami
