Maxim, that's an idea, but I haven't found another platform that is as expressive as the one I created. Or as powerful for the price. Seriously, it's as powerful as a desktop computer from a few years ago, but tiny and mobile. It can run a db server, web server, video conferencing software, etc.

I mainly meant that maybe you can use some of their HW (legs, head, servos, fixtures, cameras, etc.) in your offering, basically just make your software compatible with their HW and then you can just say as much in your marketing and refer to their stuff if its cheaper, easier to increase offering quickly.
in terms of the SoC you are using, for the price, it really is the best one for the price (I checked with a friend yesterday, couldn't find anything really better).. the only other system which might have something a bit more are some cards have a SATA connector... and for me that can be a big deal, when connecting with an SSD I can practically use it as RAM using extra swap in the OS.
one question... is the microSD controler a good one?  does it allow full bandwith of the spec (I've seen mSD cards going up to 100MB/s read and 50MB/s write)
same question for the USB/2/3
Bo
Interesting ideas.
The C1/C1+ doesn't have USB3, but the USB2 is as fast as any other computer. The microSD is better than the one on other SBCs and can fully support UHS-1 while most others can only support up to Class 10. But better yet is the eMMC controller which is akin to SSD memory, but in a smaller form factor. It allows read/write speeds that are much faster and is much more durable than microSD. However, I probably wouldn't recommend using any SSD or eMMC memory for swapping as there are a relatively low finite number of cycles that the flash memory can sustain. Even the SBCs with a SATA controller can't generally push anywhere near the speeds that a standard computer can due to limited bus speeds.
You can see some charts showing real-world speed comparisons under the main image on this page: http://ameridroid.com/products/odroid-c1

Bo, I wish I had more time to play with that.  Really great!

@Maxim - I was using provided Highlight.js tool to build the demo... it looks they are using css paths like: "style\something.css" which does not work in FF but is accepted in Chrome... so I manually replaced them now.
Maxim
ah cool thanks

Arnold
Thank you Ashley for this xmas present :-)

Gregg
Very cool Reichart.

Maarten
Cool Reichart

When I was in India in 2001 I was thinking of some small granularity financial model in rupies.  $10 minimum seems like an awful lot  0-o-o<
Reichart
$10 for lunch at Chipoltle, and if you will do that, well then, by a Divy worth of stock why don't you? :)

Bo
Sounds neat!

Reichart
"Buy" (I really hate English)

Gregg
Very cool Adrian (and Giulio). Thanks for posting that.

Maxim
cool about emscriptem build

In reaction to Arnold's proposal, I would like to ask what would be the gain if the repository was deleted.

Ladislav: as far as I understand what iArnold meant - he simply does not like recent situation - Carl not reviewing tickets. Then Earl got some approval and disappeared too. So iArnold simply thinks, that as Ren-C is mostly the only "community" (ymmv) maintained and active distro, it should be taken and considered as an official R3 build.
Both Atronix and Saphirion have their own ones. Some of those might be considered too. But it is a non vital situation, when almost 3 years after open-sourcing R3, there is a little progress and full list of PRs, noone is about to merge.
Ladislav
"he simply does not like recent situation" - I understand that, but his "solution" is literally throwing out the baby with the bath.
