CHIP, the $9 computer

These guys at NEXT looks crazy. They shipping out orders randomly. Forum members just confirming they got board already ordered in January or December. They have no idea about logistic and how to manage customers.

Main issue is that even if you get the board how can you trust to get another board(s) within reasonable time frame, or within their confirmed time? What if you have a project and want to make few units of your robot, sensor, etc?

Now it looks like porting piCore would be just a wasted time.

I'm not sure I will port, all depends on available time and other projects. There are several ARM boards, like nanopi series or orangepi, odoid, etc. Also $5 board looks interesting as it is a MIPS CPU where we have nothing to offer. We will see. Of course if someone want to make the port, just do :)

But I would like to spend more time for uPython ports as well.
