well, I guess he just knows how to use bash and has no clue on how an ash works :)
I think most people whos only unix experience comes from the more popular linux distros think that a shell has to be a bash shell to be worthwhile :)

Upon a bit of investigation, it's BusyBox's ash shell I hate. Busybox is cleared. It was negative association - I know what BusyBox is and how useful it is, but I hated the ash shell that my router's version of BusyBox used.
What exactly were you doing that meant you needed anything more sophisticated than ash on your router?


Trying to use it.

I could learn csh or tcsh or zsh, but ash is too obtuse for me.

Clamshell. Interesting. I quite like the look of it (although may prefer in black? Custom paint job!). The keyboard looks very usable, too.

edit: Woah, 1GB of RAM???
 
I like the name, but isn't it already taken?? Pandora's the name of a streaming music site... isn't that going to be confusing?

It certainly was for me... I subscribe to Pandora, so when I first saw the name I was like WTF... they named it after a music site!?
 
I must say I'm interested in what particular use the dual SD slots are going to be able to be put to. An obvious use if it lacked wifi would be to allow us to actually use SDIO wifi cards. Since it not only doesn't lack wifi, but has one of the most cutting edge pieces of wifi around so far as we know, this seems redundant.

Extra storage isn't really an issue - just swap your card.

I suppose it could be useful for transfering large files from one card to another. Otherwise the only obvious use is allowing you to run a program based on one card that is managing data from another device's, e.g. digicam or PDA.

Any other applications? Are there any SDIO bluetooth or GPS cards?
