I'm using several to connect sensors, actuators, and such to a private network, which it's great for - but I'd think at least twice before deploying one as a public-serving host in user-experience-critical role in a remote location.
I have a Pi that's found a purpose in life as a remote smokeping sensor and related network monitoring, a task it does quite nicely. Note that they just released the Pi 2, which goes from the original single-core ARM V6 to a quad-core ARM V7, and increases memory from 256M to1G. All at the same price point. That may change the calculus. I admit not having gotten one in hand to play with yet.
