Perhaps more importantly, Aaron confirmed that the hardware will be the 1GB version of the C71 (what we have been calling the C71+). There are several other small differences between the earlier version of the C71 and the C71+ - the largest being the mainboard. On the C71, it is an AMLogic Meson board, which has had kernel source available for some time. On the C71+, it is the Meson3, for which the kernel source was released just a few days ago. For you early adopters, we are working hard to get you a working kernel for the C71+. (See this thread to keep up with progress.)
The other major difference we have seen is the choice of wifi module. Unfortunately, we don't have any further information on this yet.
