The future after GEN1 is best decided and discussed either in a separate thread or later when GEN1 has been released.
I hate to kill the discussion, I'm just worried that we will make it harder for John and the others to discuss technical details if we start to fill the thread with activities (6-10) which doesn't need to happen in the near future. If there is a designer reading this thread, I'd really love a nice case designed for it which we could order through http://www.shapeways.com/ or similar sites. Regarding point 7, I actually think you want to keep it on the forum now in the beginning, mainly because it will make the activities more visible to community members and this will make it easier to reach higher volumes when ready to release GEN2 hardware. The actual files could be hosted somewhere else but keep the discussion and news in the forum to keep the interest in the community. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97881 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
