Ive been brewing with this in my mind for the last couple since the info was given. Maybe its worth getting a little discussion on. What level of developer should think about getting one?
Of course the obvious choices are the emulator dev's, but what about the more casual developer like myself?
For example if the toolchains and libraries were available I could for sure get my previous ports going like dosbox and wolf3d.
Other considerations ive been thinking of, what is the additional shippings costs? Are they coming from the UK only?
Will they be assembled? Ive read in the past they may need some assembly by the user.
What about the risks of buying the hw early, what kind of bugs will be in the dev units. For this reason im hesitant to get a dev unit, as I probally wont have enough to get a final version.
Maybe most of us will compile the apps without the hardware and have some else try it that does or wait.
Im interested on what some other opinions are. It would be interesting to know how many have shown interest in getting a dev unit.
