Back to topic. I have been following this thread quite diligently. It is really good project idea for our N900 users and devs.
But now I'm in the middle of two options. Depens on my wallet amount though.
Either go with this project or I purhase Jolla 'cos of sweet price point.
I'm electronics technician by edu. and I understand difficulties of engineering board and the realistic production costs.
I as a power user would like to express here my thanks to all of you Maemo5 devs in case of me leaping to Jolla.
Great quality apps vs crawling huge android markets.
I really hate that last part (crawling).
I would like to know final price tag when this hardware design & prod. comes to near complete.

Questions:

Will this be alive for orders only a certain amount of time?
Deadline (how much more work with options)?
Will there be a separate repository for Neo900?

Nevertheless, I would covet drop-in rep board
  • 1GHz Soc
  • 512MB-1GB RAM [swap lag free multitasking&calling]
  • LTE (800/1600/2800) OR faster 3G
  • Micro Sim
  • IR TR/RX [pierogi/lirc + teaching,ohoujeah]
  • Rest of RX-51 board specs
PS. dos1 keep the rss feed updated,
THANKS for making this possible
