Is anyone else working with the APC Rock?

http://apc.io/products/rock/ This is a small single-board computer with a
VIA Arm chip and all the usual I/O. But it runs Firefox OS natively.

I've written a post about it:

  http://firefoxosgaming.blogspot.com/2014/01/apc-rock-hardware-review.html.

I can:


   1. Download apps from the store.
   2. That's about it.

I can't:

   1. Install my own apps. The Simulator says it is connected but I can't
   Push and I can't see the APC Rock memory in File Manager. I'm running
   64-bit Windows 7.
   2. Use the VGA out.

The OS version is 1.1.0.0 - prerelease. The Platform version is 18.1.

I can't get any MAC address so I can only connect to WiFi to systems that
don't need a MAC address.

Is there any forum for APC Rock / Firefox OS users?

What I'm really looking for is some way to download binaries to a SD card
that I can boot and upgrade to a newer version.

This is potentially cool but I've not seen much about it. I bought it
direct from VIA APC for $59 and it arrived very quickly from Taiwan. It
works, it boots, it works. I think this could be an amazing device for
third-world countries, a great companion to the phone and tablet.

Any help appreciated.
