I ordered two an hour after I got my link on the july 3rd from element14..  Mine said it'd be ~16 weeks. :/

Anyone else played with embedded arm *nix? I have been for a few years with an Arm920t.

I've had mine for a few weeks now (picture attached).  It's pretty cool.  HDMI works great.  Plan for mine is to build an NES emulator and build a box modeled after the original.  USB ports instead of the old controller ports, and use a USB NES controller ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00281PFQI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00).  I might be posting in a bit on how to get the NES case built on the Replicator.  Anyways, currently running Debian and FCEUX as my NES emulation engine.  Still working to get a good front-end (it's been a while since I created stuff like that in Linux) and getting the controller working.  

I think the biggest challenge so far has been getting a monitor near my router, so that I can plug in the ethernet to the PI and have a monitor.  My router is "hidden" in the middle of the house to give me the best access throughout the house (and limit any access from outside too).  Maybe that just means that I need to get a USB wireless card working first...

xbmc is the bees knees.

yeah man,   ive been running it since Xbox original now with the raspberryPi you could velcro Xbmc to the back of your tv ,  thats worth the  price of it !

        ive not looked to hard but would be pretty cool if there is a "asterix pbx" version that runs on the raspberrypi also          

    i like the idea of these things replacing all my old pc's in favor of saving electricity

[Essobi]

I'm sure you could. Freeswitch would blow asterisk out of the water thou...

I built... Smoothstone. Senior R&D engineer for 7 years. 

I've got some horribly devious plans for at least one pi. I'll share when the build time and my hardware gets nearer. I'm expecting a HaD and a ISD mention should all go well. 

This qt and HTML5 distro looks neat in the meantime.

sometimes if im lucky i can convince someone i know or a friend of a friend to go voip ,
    mostly i use it  if someone needs a 1800 for there website i built , etc,,

 i think ive tried to talk everyone i know to go voip, lol  

 "  im like its so much cheaper since you allready pay for internet and well youll never have to deal with telemarketers again or anyone you dont wanna talk too ,  plus you can control your home automation with it  :)     sound cool ?      "

   other then that ive only experimented an farted around till i felt proficient with it .

sometimes i setup home server , somtimes VPS
