I built a weather station driven by a microcontroler that sends weather data via RS232 to a Gentoo box installed on a Soekris.

What I need is a device with one or two serial ports, one ethernet port and low power consumption as it would run on batteries (even if batteries would be reloaded with solar panels). What hardware could I use (knowing that I have more or less no experience with embedded systems so that would also be a learning project)?
