Hardware questions

Why only 2GB? Why not 4GB RAM?

Simple GNU/Linux distributions do not require the 1 or 2 GB of memory that other proprietary OSes require, so most of the 2GB will be available to the user.

Finally, there are always compromises to make when working on a device, especially one not expected to sell millions of units. The Pyra is based around a small but active community, which can really push the potential of the device. If you are more excited about the specs than the community, however, then perhaps the Pyra is not for you. But before you leave, please check out some of the Youtube demonstrations on the devboard. *TODO: links...*


Why is there not a camera???

What's this about eSATA?
