[beagleboard] Re: Received my 4GB eMMC BBB

2014-05-23 Thread Eamonn BotheringElectrons


Confused! What's an AM4x? I see AM3x and AM5x on TI's site but no mention 
of an AM4x?
Thanks for the hint, Gerald. I can see a lot of use for something with more 
memory bandwidth than the AM335x.

It is a new single core A9 device.

This board will have a lot more memory and a lot more memory bandwidth and
a lot more MIPS.

[beagleboard] Re: Received my 4GB eMMC BBB

2014-05-23 Thread dsmcewen


 Certainly everyone always wants more (e.g., more speed, more RAM, more 
 connectivity, etc.).  From the posts on this thread, however, it does 
 appear that more RAM is a common thread and certainly increased performance 
 is always welcome.


 

 But I can see the challenge of trying to maintain the current price 
 point while increasing RAM and performance, so if the BeagleBoard.org group 
 is able to actually increase the BBBs RAM and performance while keeping the 
 same or very similar price point, I'm sure it will be very welcome news.

Current price point? This board will not be a $55 board. This board is a
BeagleBoard, not a BeagleBone. This board is in a different class than the
BeagleBone.

[beagleboard] Re: Received my 4GB eMMC BBB

2014-05-22 Thread mike rankin
Lame question here: I have the old Rev B with Debian on an 8Gig microSD and 
Angstrom that I never use installed in flash. I've had no problems 
installing whatever I need or running out of space because of the 8Gigs of 
storage. Is there any disadvantage to this other then maybe slower speed?

 I received my 4GB eMMC BBB from Adadruit today.  It's nice to have the 
 extra eMMC and of course I still have the SD card for even more solid state 
 storage.

 If there was one more item I wish I had on the BBB, it would be 1GB of RAM.

If BBxxx could get a hardware video coder/decoder, like RPi has, it would
explode the world of embedded hobbyists! :)
