In the case of an embedded product, with GPLv3, the *only* way to not
include the source is to include the written offer, which opens you up
for a DDNS.  You can only use the "web download" option if the binary
is itself "web downloaded".

Also - for embedded products, to comply with GPLv3 you must enable the
user to change the code *in the device*.  Just providing source code
isn't enough unless they can use it too.
