Any GOGer getting it? Opinions?

There will be two versions:
128MB $25
256MB+ethernet $35

I might buy one of the $35 model, but I'm worried of buying the very first edition since the first will not come with a case, it will be an exposed chip (SoC) isn't it? Well the price and 1080p capabilities are very, very interesting. I hope this spreads out there just like it happened with the mp3 players. ;-)

These might help: http://www.raspberrypi.org/ and http://www.raspberrypi.com

I definitely plan on getting one. It's a fantastic idea and for 35 bucks what the hell ya know? I'd definitely go for the 35 dollar one just for the extra usb and RAM though. It'll be interesting to see how it handles performance wise as the GPU sounds rather decent really but the processor is a bit sluggish. Still be fun to play around with.

Broadcom claims the GPU can do fills at 1Gpixel/sec, which is about half what current low-end mobile GPUs can do. That's very good for such a miniature device. But it excels at being able to do processing on video data such as motion detection.

It's an exposed circuit board, but it will run without an enclosure if you just keep it safe. Hook up a USB power source and a USB webcam and have fun.

This is definitely a Geek Must Have.

I may get one to run Linux versions of emulators on a TV, with a generic PS2-to-USB converter, or a USB gamepad. Might also see if I can get it to boot some version of Windows (probably 98SE or 2000.)

Too cheap to not try. Can't wait to see what people do with this thing.

Don't think you'll have any joy with Windows; it's an ARM CPU so cannot run x86 object code at all. Windows 8 has ARM support, but the ARM versions may not be available to retail customers, and this may be too small for it anyway.

I wonder if RISCOS will be out for it at launch.

RISC OS will be available but may not be fully usable. Sadly, a lot of the software (including all of the graphics system) is Broadcom proprietary, not open source. Things like keyboard and mouse drivers for RISC OS are still unsatisfactory. The state of RISC OS for the little guy is described here: http://www.osnews.com/story/25276/Raspberry_Pi_To_Embrace_RISC_OS

Oh, I had no idea. Guess I'll stick to my idea of running console emulators under a Linux environment.

I'm getting quite a few of them. They will be mounted to the back of the monitors I brought to drive a video-wall and also be a cluster.

Looks really impressive. I have no idea how this thing could be useful to me nor do I think they will sell them here at the same price as they do, say, in US. So I will probably not be getting it in a forseeable future. However, who knows things may change.

Raspberry Pi Foundation are British, though they mark prices in USD. Not that I know how that changes anything for availability in Russia.

I'll be getting a couple as soon as I realise they've become openly available rather than as a few test boards being auctioned out.
Not in the first edition at least, it's soldered on the board (not a ZIF socket as is the norm for AMD and Intel desktop CPU's), and it's probably quite a bit too small to desolder by yourself.
...at least, that's how I've understood what I've read.

Supeeeeeer-Mashiroooo-Kickk!!! =)

Really great product. Definitely getting one or two.

Don't get too excited yet. The model coming out at the end of this month is a caseless model B. It's a Raspberry Pi for $35 with no case; you only get a populated PCB that you can plug in.

This release is not for consumers, it's for enthusiasts. If you're looking for a Raspberry Pi to use in the strictest sense, you have a bit longer to wait.

I'm getting the caseless B anyway because I'm shaking like a diabetic over this thing. Seriously. I've been following the Pi situation since it was first announced and I'm so goddamn anxious to get one!
