alejandro, i'm really sorry but they just weren't expecting engineering-types to be interested: they've written out translation probably of chinese specifications handed to them by a customer, most likely from a special order of 50,000 units or something, we _just_ don't know at this stage. basically when i get mine i'll immediately dismantle it and post photos, but by ... well... almost already and definitely by tomorrow, the window of opportunity to get these at cost (and get them this month) will have passed. fortunately we know that they have a chinese version of gOS on it (2.6.24 kernel), already, otherwise i simply would not be bothering _at_ all, and certainly wouldn't have sent the message to debian-arm initially. l. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
