How can somebody use a computer that hasn't shipped yet?
(That's the impression I get from the posts in comp.arch.embedded).

A very limited test run was made, and they auctioned those off, so
presumably those are out there.

One source says the first large run was towards the end of February (I
forget the specific date) so perhaps they are available already in the UK.

The key point seems to be the price. You can look in five year old issues
of "Linux Journal" and see small boards for use with Linux. Maybe not as
small as this, but for a lot of things, extreme size isn't needed. But
they were more expensive.
