It's everything I would want in a modern 'Plug and it is serious competition with the upcoming Beagleboard X15. Too bad it's priced at $250.00, if it were half that I could think about it. Sighhhhhhhhhhhhh.

that is nice looking. The original Pogoplug Biz was supposedly $299.00 for short period of time, so maybe we'll see the day Adorama sells PrimaBox for less price than I could ship it for... hey is this thing 64 bit? Anything higher than Pogoplug should handle a hard drive array bigger than 2 TB.

I swore around December I heard they were trying to get a higher Bluetooth revision out, but don't see evidence right now. However it's a revelation that Bluetooth can interfere with USB 3: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth#Interference_caused_by_USB_3.0

That indeed would be a wet dream. Or medically speaking, a "nocturnal emission".

There is no 2TB limitation for the Pogoplug with the new u-boot. That barrier has been broken long ago!

I gasp in the sheer coolness of that. I'm closer to a day when i can study this stuff better, using one centralized computer and any Thin Client pointing to it sees the same content. Therefore if there's a Dummies book to write on this stuff, I'm proudly the Dummiest LOL I'll do the Table of contents, or just the book cover LOL

I'd mentioned the 16-bit part after hearing it joked, that Windows 95 is immune to a lot of common viruses :-D

It's not something like the sound barrier or anything like that :)) simply a modern version of the u-boot software which provides GPT partition format for large HDD.
