This means it's hit the embedded/consumer electronics crowd's radar.

I was actually wondering about things like Digg. The word hasn't really gotten out that far outside of the tech gadget community. Would things like people "Digg"ing it, Facebook group and the like be a useful endeavor to keep word of mouth moving?craigix said:Pretty good, a little copy and paste but a well done article, you can tell they must know what they are talking about (at least more than some sites).
When the big day comes we will need to organise some digg action and things like that, how many people have digg accounts and can get the message out there I wonder?
Haha...I kind of feel selfish to agree. :3Korlithiel said:Facebook and Digg are bound to be worthwhile investments to advertise, though I would hope it wasn't used extensively until after the first 3k were available for preorder.
When the Horizon's H-Racer got a few articles written about it, the manufacture got overwhelmed with orders. I got a delay notice and they said they would work as fast as possible to make more.danboid said:That article is surely enough to get any Linux/gadget geek all hot and fidgety- wonder how many hours will pass on 30th before all 3000 are GONE (would this be allowed to happen?)

I think this is a nice idea, and a good way to spread word of mouth.
I'll sign up if there's an official Pandora group on Facebook.
Heh... They've been at doing embedded and consumer electronics Linux based devices for years now. I skim them all the time to find out about new stuff that the vendors are supporting Linux on or supplying it with Linux.craigix said:Pretty good, a little copy and paste but a well done article, you can tell they must know what they are talking about (at least more than some sites).
Heh... I'm surprised that you didn't put two and two together with remarks about Beagleboard having this and not to worry about it.Sphinxter said:Because it macs like a playah. I find the angstrom bit very encouraging, had not heard that before, very good move. I would not waste my time putting some other distro in it's place, this is most excellent.
