<r>Mimo, they actually make something a lot like the R-pi but much more expensive (around $400 for the lower range model) so they do an awesome range of USB touchpad screens to support the idea:<br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www.mimomonitors.com/">http://www.mimomonitors.com/</URL><br/> (Apparently th...

<t>I have to say, I like the idea of being able to switch out the SD cards like cartridges...

I can't remember which but I'm getting this from the blog or one of the developers on this forum...

The choice of SD over Mirco was deliberate as the hardware is more rugged. I don't think they liked having such a small memory card either.

Thanks I've posted it in the Slogans thread as well!

I'm going for the Math-based pun:

"Great ideas aren't always Rational!"

<r>I like this idea by abishur the best so far: <URL url="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-t1UPQOvI9pU/Tjl1-CKfJKI/AAAAAAAAAeg/mxogJzLH7e8/s720/r-pi.JPG"><LINK_TEXT text="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-t1UP ... 0/r-pi.JPG">https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-t1UPQOvI9pU/Tjl1-CKfJKI/AAAAAAAAAeg/...

Thanks, I actually prefer that solution, it makes the board itself entirely disposable if you can just plug into another device!

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, I'm used to my hardware on a larger scale!

Will RPi have on-board storage and if so what size? I haven't had much time to look into it but from the forum vid it looks like the SD card could fill this function?
