For those which are used as clients for host female DB9 is more useful as you can plug usb-serial cable directly. This is done that way on BeagleBoard XM.

But not each board is used that way. Many are used as autonomic systems.

A male db9 being used as console always requires a seperate gender changer, especially with usb-serial cables. Ports that are typically used for console are lkkely to be conneted to a host and thus should have client connectors.</p> I disagree with the preferred rs232 gender.

Other option is Mini2440 + VGA board but I do not know details of it.</p> I would take Micro2440 – WVGA screen is more usable then QVGA one.
