If it's the same Board as the Project Board why does it say 'Coming Soon' on there website. Do you think there will be a new Xorro Development Board released in the future for the AmigaOne X5000? Apart from the video link with lit LED's are there any other videos that Amiga User's have made with the Project Board. If not what other cool things could you do on this Board when installed in a Next Generation Amiga. Is it like a Arduino Board or is it different to this. Thanks.

(1)  Because their website is utter %&$#?@!%&$#?@!%&$#?@!%&$#?@!e, and completely outdated.

(2)  Has anyone bought one?  I'm going to guess that number would be in the double-digits, at best.  Doesn't bode well for developing & releasing future boards if no one is interested in the ones available now.

(3)  Haven't you been reading this thread?  No, no one has developed jack-**** with these boards.

(4)  Arduino contains a processor and ports, and is basically like a mini self-contained computer.  It has absolutely 0% in common with the project board.

(5)  Are you just trolling with these questions?  Because really, this is getting pretty ridiculous.  :whack:  :madashell:  :madashell:

Thanks for your feedback. I wonder why these boards haven't been popular.

1.  You need an X1000 which was only produced in limited numbers.

2.  You need an understanding of programming to be able to get the XMOS chip to do something.

3.  You need a good understanding of electronics so you can build something the XMOS chip can make use of, and without causing damage by overloading the circuits.

4.  You need to have an idea for something that could be useful to you and that the XMOS and Xorro slot are ideally suited to.

5.  You need to have time to actually work on a project.
