those changes where made some time ago. you seen to be a bit behind the news on this.

ordered mine months ago, sold mine over a month ago.

they're working on a camera unit for it though, nothing fancy, just a basic camera with basic sensor but should go into one of the ribbon cable slots on the board.

Fair enough im behind BUT I did leave it for a year to mature and it has. XBMC seems to be the business on it now. Its worth a punt for £40.

hook my Logi remote up and the nas and im off.

Pan, when did you order yours?

Now, that's getting more interesting.

I'll order one when they have them in stock and ready to ship though. I'm... still smarting from the ZX Spectrum debacle.

Mate, I dont think they will ever be in stock to ship right away. The site is saying shipping within 3 weeks but Pan mentioned he got his quickly.

Will put something on youtube when I get mine working as a media box.

I ordered one and got it within a week even though it said it would take 3 weeks.

I believe they only started selling the 512mb version in October, not ages ago
