Really can't think of a use for one other tan tinkering. Maybe running some surveillance cameras but I don't have any.

Neat little device. I don't have time for tinkering with electronics anymore. Someone will take one of these and turn it into the next must-have widget.

That Android motherboard looks really nice too.

It's good for a jump host, a small home automation device, etc. etc. I've already got enough devices as it is.

I've looked at them, but I don't have one. What do you want to know?

I'm sorry to be off topic but do anyone else remember the radar jamming scene from space balls when they read the topic title? XD

So, pi = tiny motherboard, then?

Forgive me, as much as geekery interests me, its rather difficult to keep up with, these days...

Not just a mobo, but the whole computer sans OS. But yes, really tiny and low power consumption, which could be handy when in the field or off the grid.

Got a B+ model running Rasplex on my old 16:9 Sony CRT. Video looks great!

I will get more for some other project ideas running around in my head. ☺
