By rev B or C, this will be a "must buy."

The current specs are excellent, but let's be honest, the real QA starts when the unwashed masses can get their hands on it.

Yes, because direct MHz comparisons of different architectures are super valid and all. :rolleyes:

The Pentium 4 was approaching 4GHz in 2004. Clearly it's better than your silly i7s, right?

Would it be possible to dd a Maemo image onto a properly formatted SD card for the pandaboard to boot off of, or do the u-boot and Linux kernel always need to be built by hand?

Yep - Bringing up an old topic. I was about to start a new one..
Can this be done?

Maemo on Pandaboard and/or beagleboard?? :D

I want to build a small desktop using a BB or PB and use Maemo as OS.. No, I'm not weird (eccentric, maybe ;) ) or mental. I just like Maemo! Would be a sweet desktop OS on a panda/beagle board
