That is great news! :) Looking forward to it becoming available from resellers in the near future. Hopefully some of them will offer bundles with nice cases and extras.

I found something other interesting. Gunnar has connected a V4 to a Motorola Lapdock, which is a little notebook-like device without a mainboard.
The real deal here is, this docks battery can power the V4, so one can finally create a mobile Amiga.
Quote
he Laptop is designed as "empty"
The Laptop has Monitor, and Speaker, and Keyboard and the battery -
but its designed that the "computing" is done outside of it.
This means you need to attach a "computer" to it on the back.
The V4-Standalone is plugged into it on the back.

The battery of the LAPTOP powers the V4-SA.
This gives you a mobile AMIGA.


I actually blew the money on one of those to use with a Droid 4. This looks like a much better use for it! Do you have a link to where he is posting about it?

Here is the link to the post about the laptop on the Apollo Core Forum:
