About the Raspberry Pi in particular...I'm having
a very hard time
getting excited about it. It's a neat board, to be sure, but it's only
the twentieth or thirtieth design just like it (and nobody got this
excited about its predecessors), and you can't actually GET one without
spending months on end on a waiting list.
Where exactly can I find those 20 or 30 designs? I've yet to see anything
that comes close to what the R-Pi can do for the price they're at.
The wait times should be pretty short right now - mine took 3 weeks to get
here once I placed my order through RS (Allied). They'll decrease further
as production rises to meet the demand.
