Is there a picture of the packaging or box anywhere? ED mentions he's got 700 of them waiting to be filled - I thought it might be nice to see a pic...

It means there will be software updates. The first batch should not be different hardware-wise from the rest, unless they find something new to improve.aesir911 said:anyways, what does this mean on openpandora: "So while it will surely not be perfect on first release, you can be sure playing, surfing, working, etc. works fine. It just is in need of more tweaking." does that mean there will be kernal updates, or does that mean the first batch will never be perfect? are they starting to settle now?

Also, I wanna put in my vote for ninja cat.
Nope. The only issues so far are software related. There were several board revisions and no problems I heard of left.aesir911 said:I thought they were gonna change some things for the 2nd batch?
It's not going to happen! It's going to take possibly 6 months for a straight re-run (due to parts shortages) without having to consider changing designs/parts and all that that entails. The ONLY possible differences would be if a part became obsolete and a newer totally compatible part was released in its place e.g. TI no longer produce the 600mhz OMAP and supply a 720mhz in its place.Nova said:I'd be disappointed and would feel slightly cheated if the hardware was changed in the second batch, maybe that's just me though...<snip>
That's what I thought too at first, but apparently the 600MHz version is still available as Laurent pointed out.Nation.A.List said:TI no longer produce the 600mhz OMAP and supply a 720mhz in its place.
Whoa! I was only trying to make an example (hence prefix e.g.) based on what had been speculated NOT stating a fact, I guess I should have written "IF TI ......"mali said:That's what I thought too at first, but apparently the 600MHz version is still available as Laurent pointed out.Nation.A.List said:TI no longer produce the 600mhz OMAP and supply a 720mhz in its place.
