In the context of openness I highly doubt it is interesting at all: It uses same SoC as a previous model which as I understand it implies it cannot even boot without a non-DFSG-compliant blob. Additionally it contains no ethernet and has no builtin USB hub. So even disregarding the aspect of openness, in the aspect of features it is not comparable to previous Raspberry Pi models or the OLinuXino boards, but insted comparable to the breed of devices popularized by the Rikomagic mk802 (except the zero comes with zero casing). - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
