I'm around here. Not much to add except those are all bogus purchase links. On the official product page (http://beagleboard.org/x15), we have nothing but a "register your interest" link right now. Once the board reaches production and I have an official list of distributors who will have boards in stock in the first production run, I'll update the page with a drop-down list of distributors and send out a notification e-mail to all those who have registered interest.
For serious contributors to open source projects, I've got a small stash of boards I've been handing out. It requires that you actually engage the lists and make public commitments to what you are going to contribute. For those paying attention, it shouldn't be that hard. "I'll test it out" isn't a significant contribution. On Wed, Dec 2, 2015 at 1:53 PM, Gerald Coley <ger...@beagleboard.org> wrote: > I suggest that you contact Jason Kridner.
