should be no problem considering pi needs just around 700mA. give it some buffer if you put extra USB and NIC connected, but 1A should be sufficient

It seems the combined package of the model B pi and case is listed as available ? 500+ stock availability in SG ??

Do we have to create a trade account etc ?

Where'd you purchase yoru Edimax USB Adapter in MY?

Yes, it does work. 5V @ 2.1A. A lot of extra juice to power your RPi and it's peripherals but still not a 2.5" Ext. HDD.

If you purchase it separately, it's cheaper @ RM111+RM28.70 = RM139.70 instead of RM159.
Do note there's no ready stock for the separate ones.

No business proof was required for me. But that's cause I had a trade account from previous trades.
The price of RM111 is the total paid and invoiced incl shipping via GDEX.

I clicked on that link, and it says item is unavailable what gives?



edimax, asus n10, prolink DOES work. but only verified with raspbian, NOT raspbmc.

for raspbmc, i believe n10 doesn't work out-of-the-box. need to ssh and install/configure it first.


also, i've been researching about GPS and RPi, and I came across this




just google/ebay for BU 353 / 355. It's around RM105 and above plus shipping from china.

to configure, you need gpsd.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gpsd

sudo apt-get install gpsd gpsd-clients python-gps


just note that most GPS receivers uses serial, even usb ones (it will autocreate a (virtual) serial port). More info:

lolyat plaza the shop with the green letterings. not mentioning names unless they pay me.

i am a android user, use linux (ubuntu) for a very limited time before but not familiar with it and found it not user friendly (ok, i am a noob.. -.-)

so now i am considering Pi or MK808(cost RM280 with remote control), my main purpose is to watch video on my TV, and maybe very little internet browsing, which one is more suitable for me ?

my main concern is the video support, like rmvb/mp4/mkv 720p,1080p smoothness.

Hmm.. this casing looks better than element14's

http://malaysia.rs-online.com/web/p/proces...t-kits/7644385/

just came back from a looong trip to penang, and look what came from the mail!




it's all laser-cut, wooden box parts. see the middle part? the guy cut the groove that way so it's "spring-y" for you to slot the other parts together, as well as for ventilation. GENIUS!

FYI: Element 14 has the PI in stock already. Get yours before they run out
