Martin,
I'd agree with you in general; however, I'm an Atrix owner, and I really
don't see how it can claim to be in any way functionally equivalent to a

Hello All,
Been a long time since I got back on the list.
Anyone ordered a Raspberry Pi? Curious to see what folks that get one end
up doing with it. When I saw them announced, I was very tempted.
Thanks

Havent ordered one yet, my b/day is coming up at the end of the month so I
asked for one (I know its going to be late).
I've got a few ideas for mine, retrofit my car with one of those fancy
navigation and media systems like what you find in the euro cars - ipod
doc, satnav, bluetooth handsfree
Like Chris, I haven't ordered yet,
I have registered interest with RS components (au).
I had two ideas:
Main processor for my current satellite tracking antenna project (remove the
need for a separate PC)
Autonomous data logging with automatic uploads, time synchronisation etc.
My first

Raspberry pi Arduino, what can we do?
You wouldn't need an Arduino if you had a r.Pi. It has a GPIO area
that you can hook in whatever you need.

The Raspberry pi is supposed to have 17 I/O pins max according to the wiki (if
you turn all the i2c SPI busses off).
Given how often I run out of pins on an arduino, I could use the expansion

Have you looked at the Parallax Propeller?
32 gpio pins
it also has 8 cores (or what they call Cogs)
32bit
80Mhz top speed with external clock source, or 12Mhz with internal osc.
3.3v power
boot from i2c eeprom or serial
ive been playing around with one. The only downside - they invented a new

Doesn't a SoC board, with a few USB ports, ethernet, video and audio out,
just become a PC with the addition of a USB hub providing fanout to a
keyboard, mouse and a bit more storage?
Just like the mobile device manufacturers (to wit Motorola with Atrix and
Asus with Transformer ) want us to

Sorry to be so ignorant, but I haven't heard of the Raspberry Pi before.
The posts seems to indicate it as a mini PC; however, it seems to be
just a SoC board?

The big thing is that it is essentially a small computer that is good
enough to run quake, decodes h.264 etc
This means it opens up a whole lot to software/OS tinkers. They are able
to create their own devices/projects with limited funds ~$40 and limited
electronics knowledge.
