MBED should be considered as a challenger now

Javascript on mbed could radically change the way mbed is seen from the engineers.
Having Javascript on it could open doors to SW engineers wanting to build physical objects. And ARM does have a much heavier marketing force than Espruino community.
I really don't know if this is good or bad news for Espruino. The fact is that embedded Javascript is getting more and more popular and this is good news for the maker community!

mbed pro:

• supported by a to-big-to-fail company
  
• easiness of development C++ <--> Javascript (to be confirmed)
  
• Support on wide range of ARM platforms
  
  

mbed cons:

• not (yet) as convenient as Espruino (IDE, CLI, ...)
  
• Community certainly not as friendly and reactive as Espruino community
  
• RAM usage seems to be slightly heavier than Espruino
  
  

Does anyone think about additional pro/cons?
