We are on the cusp of the first anniversary of Nothing! I am sooo excited about the anniversary of Nothing, it's like Nothing before!

An NDA prohibits people discussing it. Sadly

There's NDAs that prohibit people from discussing their feelings on why something they paid over $700 is months late?

With those specifications I will definitely concede to you that is indeed a computer.
What is fairly impressive is the resolution you're quoting, the idea of connecting a bluetooth keyboard, and using an external display.
You've almost made me want one.

Frighteningly close to the productivity of a small PPC nettop. Leave it to Nokia to come up with something more attractive than a Blackberry or iPhone.


Yeah, my Nexus One is 800 x 480 and my gtablet is 1024 x 600.  My keyboard for it is on the way.  Smart phones most certainly are personal computers.  The fact that both my NexusOne and gTablet can run Amiga software, pretty much says that if the Amiga is a computer, then so is an Android device.

I'm mean,  but you know, I do think they will make this thing, to the point of selling it and all. I just wish they would shut up, no hyperbole, and then just drop the thing.

We are all to old and weird for their "normal" approach.

Never noticed that 1200 accelerators resemble a piano pretty closely!

:lol:

Would be even better if it was the case that the socket was part of the motherboard and the edge connector part of the accelerator, since you'd even have the piano keys then. Sans accidentals, but you can't have everything :)

Haha, that's both bizarre and actually true. I like it  :)

Im curious though, where or when did you notice this? It's not an everyday sort of observation :)
Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

Alas, no A1200 accelerators matching the search :-)

Heh, that's kinda cool.

Who'd have thought it though, the most enthusiastic Ive been in an A1X1000 thread is due to a piano  :)

:lol: When I saw A1260's avatar I simply couldn't help it. With the angled SIMM it looks so familiar and yet so strange... :insane:

Oh, I don't know. Going by the site, they're still pretty confident that "2010 is the year we come back." ;)
