QUOTE(general_odin @ Mar 1 2012, 01:05 PM) according to the official faq, yes it is possible to run Android on it but need some modification in order for Android to run on low memory system. Added on March 6, 2012, 6:19 am QUOTE(sweemeng @ Mar 5 2012, 10:13 PM) Offtopic, it has a lot extra ports and on-board NAND storage... but it has slower processor and lesser ram.... I found beagle bone is more cool, more expensive though, is for those are are familiar with arduino, but want more power http://beagleboard.org/bone One more thing, not all distro are supported, you need to wait for them to compile for ARM, that you probably already know Furthermore, we can purchase 4 units of Raspberry Pis with that price.. 4 is always > 1 right This post has been edited by I<3LYN: Mar 6 2012, 06:19 AM |

QUOTE(SnoWFisH @ Mar 8 2012, 04:30 PM) Want to ask a fundamental question this board can be powered by a microUSB right? Im thinking of purchasing one, then making it to be a lightweight media player for LCD TV (my TV got usb port and hdmi port at the side)., so that I can connect it to LAN, and play those media files tat my internal TV Media player cannot play... Yes, it can draw powers from the microUSB port as long as the source can output >= 700mA for model B and >= 300 mA for model A.This is definitely a good alternative to WDTV Live-S cuz no external power brick required Or even better, can be a media transcoder where it can just feed from the switch / NAS's power via USB Port, and stream to other devices like the PS3, phones etc. I am wondering how much bandwidth required to stream 720p / 1080p video (with acceptable bit rate)? As I read on the official faq, the Ethernet port is sharing the same USB hub with the usb ports, in such case the available bandwidth is highly limited.

QUOTE(SnoWFisH @ Mar 9 2012, 03:26 PM) My colleague jst ordered, E14 has stock in local warehouse in Malaysia! Due to arrive next monday I think it is pre-order only... RM145 including shipping for B Model. I don't think bulk order will make the price any cheaper for now, since E14 and RS implemented a MOQ (Max order quantity =.=), of 1 unit per person. I'll try to get some unboxing pictures anyway... i also ordered This post has been edited by I<3LYN: Mar 10 2012, 01:01 AM |

QUOTE(SnoWFisH @ Mar 12 2012, 09:57 AM) Update, as we all expected, E14 emailed my colleague that his shipment will be delayed as there is no stock in the warehouse (First batch of manufacturing just popped out from the factory of course no stock lah! but from the official site, it had mentioned that second batch can be dispatched by April and will be the 1 unit per person limitation will be relaxed.He was told that the earliest he will get is end of july. He then went and cancelled his order. further more i had ordered as well, however i didn't receive any shipment delay notice for E14. This post has been edited by I<3LYN: Mar 13 2012, 04:08 PM |

actually it is kind of pointless even if you can get Windows 8 (or any windows) running on it... I could imagine there will be very few applications can be run on Windows 8 (ARM) version, unless you can get the software author to compile ARM compatible binaries.
There is an open source implementation of Windows called ReactOS it is the closest hope (but still highly unpractical) for anyone who wish to run windows on Raspberry Pi. This post has been edited by I<3LYN: Apr 2 2012, 05:06 AM |

QUOTE(Fubar20 @ Jan 3 2013, 02:56 PM) What you want to do with your Pi then? imho, not worth getting it if you dont have serious idea what you're going to do with it. i have the very first batch sitting at a corner for many months already lol This post has been edited by I<3LYN: Jan 5 2013, 09:38 AM |

QUOTE(C-Fu @ Jan 6 2013, 12:38 AM) not bad man. did you cut it yourself or you sent it to a fabricator? is it expensive? acrylic i mean. if not then i might just need you to help me fabricate the arcade cabinet Thanks! I did it by myself. I have access to a laser-cutting machine. the cost consider kinda affordable. PM me if you want a quotation. P/S: oh wait, i just misread you wanna make a arcade cabinet. I am not that skilled to build something that complicated, it might take a lot of trial & errors. Also, depending on the size and complexity, it might cost something.
