Re: Raspberry Pi in HA?



To pick up on some of the comments so far.

The limit of 1 per person was for the first 10k batch, there is an
expectation that this will be lifted for orders after this.

Yes, the network connection is from a combined 10/100ethernet and USB hub
chip that connects to the single USB port present on the broadcom chip.
The power difference is mainly down to the ethernet connection. As
previously mentioned there are GPIO pins available.

So what can you currently do with RPi, there is currently one linux image
available, and XBMC has been demonstrated to run well.

For those no wishing to use Farnell, their sister company CPC will also be
offering RPi.
