Gerals, That section talks about a price increase between USD 5 to USD 15 for the rev C version. Has anything been decided? Mouser has increased the price from EUR 36 ($49) to EUR 48 ($66). Let's hope that's $15 for manufacturing plus some reseller profit, instead of the other way around!

We have settled at this point on $10. That has not been implemented yet, but that is the plan. Still trying to get feedback from all of the distributors before we nail it down.. Gerald On Tue, Apr 8, 2014 at 8:44 AM, Bas Laarhoven s...@xs4all.nl wrote: Gerals, That section talks about a

On the documentation like http://www.elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack#Revision_C_.28Pending.29 is there any chance I could talk you into putting dates instead of using terminology like 4-5 weeks which leaves me searching for publication dates of the document? On Tue, Apr 8, 2014 at 9:48

I'm thinking to use Charles S's MachineKit LinuxCNC image, which occupies 4G and would like to run it from the eMMC rather than an SD card, with card dedicated to machine/print job files. I was a little annoyed (but happy) to hear that there's a 4G revD board shipping soon, at least according

I wonder why the BBB has only 2G of space in the eMMC - aren't most small boot images designed to fit in 4G? It's *great* to have onboard bootable space, just seems like it would be bigger or why bother since many/most will just end up not using it and booting from flash. On Thursday,
