Don’t really care for a fancy box, which will end up in the garbage bin anyway. Just wrap it up in an old newspaper and ship it

Well, usually, a manufacturer informs all their customers if a product becomes obsolete including a deadling - so you can buy any remaining stock and place last orders if need be, and TI has not yet informed us about anything like that, so they should still have remaining stock.
I've dropped emails to my TI contacts and GC to find that out as well. Hopefully, it was just false news, as it would be a pretty bad timing now that we're in production.
Got a reply from TI Sales. According to their internal database, they still have OMAP5 in stock.
One reason could be that you never ordered the neccessary amount of parts that you count as a customer with an active production. 500 pices for them is more like prototyping.
Maybe my contact was wrong. He works in the department for power electronics. Fingers crossed! Otherwise I have nothing to troll here anymore... Would be sad.
I mean, it was close...what with volcanoes going off again...Fingers crossed! Otherwise I have nothing to troll here anymore... Would be sad.
That looks cool! I'll have to install on my desktop. Unfortunately, it's 64 bit only as of January 2020, according to the FAQ. That means no running on the Pyra, right?This is quite cool,
As whe now have 3D Car Games Running ,

An estimate date for finished product? I'm not sure to reiceve email,like survey. Thanks1. Boxes not yet arrived, they are scheduled for November 5th (and the manufacturer has been very reliable for the past 10 years )
2. Picked up Chrome cases on Friday, so we can continue with pre-assembly (so far, we only had black ones)
3. Protection bags for packaging the Pyras arrive this week
4. Special booklet (not a manual ) is being designed this week and should also arrive until November 5th, so in time with the boxes
We're currently testing one final hack on the current CPU boards as a workaround for an OMAP5 / TWL-Bug regarding audio clock, but that's WIP, so not much to tell yet.
So what we're doing is:
* Preassemble as many Pyras up to the state that only the mainboard and CPU boards need to be put in (so Lid, DisplayBoard, magnet, logo, LCD Cable, Hinge, speakers, keymar) as possible
* Once everything is here, send out the emails to the preorders to finish the order. Then finish the assembly with the correct color and ship it.
The preassembly is most of the work. Putting in the boards and closing it up is pretty fast.
I've preordered in may 2016,but i didn't received email for color survey. I've contacted dragonbox via whatsapp to take part to survey. Now i'm not sure to reiceve email when my preorder are ready to finish. I want to know an estimate date. ThanksThe survey about the colours should have all been sent out to your registered email account. If you have a preorder you should have received it already (twice if you're German, the first being blank). If you only have a pre-preorder still you have some work to do.
