the RPF simply cannot pre-announce a compute module revision 2, as their production/sales partners (element 14 & RS components) would sue them because the sales of the normal compute module would immediately stop! This is a market that prefers long term plans and buy more processor's/boards of the ...

I and others have previously suggested adding VGA to the Raspberry Pi. There may however be more cost effective to have a good HDMI -> analog converter that do not require changes in the device design. HDMI -> analog converters are however both rare and expensive. In fact they are so expensive that ...

<t>Unless he buy the components and manufacture it himself. I am quite sure that we will see rasppi clones once the CPU hits the market, if it hasn't hit the market yet. I would not be surprised if at least one of the 10 rasppi:s was sold to someone that wants it for this purpose. <b...

Codeblocks will probably be a good choice for rapspi. Eclipse should work to but may be a bit to heavy. However it could be an excellent choice if you use cross compilation from a x86-based compile-farm.

<t>Quote from jamesh on November 14, 2011, 12:05 People asking for this sort of stuff woefully underestimate the complexity of the device. The GPU is very VERY complicated. The chances of someone (not already employed by Broadcom to work on the chip) being able to write a driver or to fix exist...

The initial order will be 10,000 units I believe.[/quote]
Darn. That means they will be out of stock in less then 15 min and sold on ebay for a lot more then $35.

<t>If you think that making 50k devices is sufficient then you seriously underestimate the demand. I plan to buy 10-50 myself and i checked with most of my friends and they are all planning to make purchases in those volumes. These devices are priced like usb memory sticks and we are gonn...

mateli

This is naturally not an option for the first generation of the device.
However, once volume is sufficient to actually make CPU:s I suggest teaming up with the OpenRISC ASIC project in order to build a CPU that does not require binary blobs...

mateli

What about making BBC and Slashdot reporting on the device? I don't think much more advertising is required... there are a lot of us just waiting to buy.

I have drooled a bit over Microsoft Mathematic/Math which i was unable to test as it refuse to run under Wine. It is basically a on-screen scientific calculator targeting students.

A clone of it for Linux would be awesome, preferably with a lot less hardware requirements...
