Re: Release date???

Please don\'t get me wrong - I\'m not shooting arrows at anyone.

I\'m just a little worried that due to the economic picture turning a little darker again - this might all slip and slip.

It is my sheer hunger for Pi that feeds my anxiety :)

Re: XBMC Live USB Persistent

It may be worth exploring some of the unofficial boxee live cd stuff floating around - I have had much more success using boxee on linux boxes over XMBC in the past.

<r>Hello everyone - This is my first post in tech heaven so go easy on me.<br/> <br/> I've been wondering whether it will be possible to use a mobile phone as a remote desktop display for the Pi over mobile wifi to offer a live display of the desktop to make it portable (albeit a two box effort).<br...
