@JJ

Have you tried any games or videos on it yet?
Would like to see a clip on youtube or something of you testing it.
Any chance?

Finally got invited to order last night.
They said I should have it within three weeks.

@ JJ

Very cool, thanks for sharing!

Keep us posted about your progress! :)

:pint:

(Still can't help thinking that the Raspberry offers so much less in both performance and features than an Efika MX that's still very cheap and ahelluvalot more complete solution (hence far better worth for your money), but indeed the Raspberry is practically "no money at all", so what the hell... ;))

I wouldn't recommend running it laying on the anti-static bag. :juggler:

No worries mate, not looking for a big production.
A little cheap and nasty clip when you have a moment will be great.

Cheers

I see people are doing cute little cases for the Raspberry PI, looks like a better idea than having it on the desk exposed.

If I was going to buy one I'd use this case:
