I have enough projects as it is.. But I might have to smash this into the mix somehow.

Oh boy. I’m trying to figure out what to do with one.
I'm going to buy one regardless... But I have a few ideas.
1. Get linux on it, and get a 5" touch sensitive display and install it my blazer or pickup as a media PC.
2. Get linux on it, and make it a streaming box for streaming video and audio to EDJ TV
3. Get linux on it, add some micocontrollers and maybe make a home security system.
4. make an evil robot.

Very very cool stuff.
I have some really neat ideas for this thing once they start to sell them here in the next few days. I'll post pictures once I have them.

Re:

the cases idea's have been floating around for a little bit.
they released a bit more info on international shipping.. it would cost 25$ to ship the thing to the states.. so 50$ just to get it. which isnt bad considering what it can do.
im still holding my breath here for one. but again.. 1 project at a time.
