We need one which will be around for a while.
Wow, what world do you live in? A world where cheap chinese manufacturers actually support their hardware? Where they make full software available for many years? What world is that? Allwinner hardware has very extensive support, and a lot of this is delivered by the linux-sunxi.org community. We have several partial datasheets (A10 and A13), and a lot of code for A10, A13, A10s, A20 and A30. Olimex is actively engaged with this community. We have a chance to get fully free, fully functioning hardware as the projects to RE the GPU and VPU are well underway. There is simply nothing out there that can match that atm. So buy an olimex board, it's way better supported than anything else out there. Luc Verhaegen. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
