Looks great to run openhab... isn't it?

The main problem is to find a JVM that is compatible with Java6.

I will definitely buy one of these when it's out. The hardware is not
so great, but for that price it is unbeatable! Also, you could look at
BeagleBoard, PandaBoard and the upcoming beast EagleBoard with OMAP5
SoC.

A short first feedback.

I have just installed JAVA EMBEDDED from Oracle on my Seagate DocStar
running ArchLinux/ARM (ARMv5, http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5/seagate-dockstar).OpenHAB
runtime (without addons) starts up without any problems. JAVA EMBEDDED
is much faster (round about 2 times faster) then the openJDK Zero VM i
used so far.

In my opinion the main disadvantage is that JAVA EMBEDDED is not realy
free.

"Java SE is free to use for development of embedded applications. We
provide affordable licensing for deploying Java SE in an embedded
device or as part of a embedded-based system. Please contact us when
you are ready to deploy or if you have already deployed but not sure
you have the correct license."

Sounds promising :-)
Would be interesting to hear if it also works with a few add ons (bindings) and if the DocStar memory (128MB RAM, right?) is enough to run openHAB in a real setup.

So did you run openHAB in the past already with openJDK Zero? Any experiences you could share on this?

Raspberry Pis started being made a couple of days ago

This means that the first units from the first batch will be rolling
off the line at the end of January. This first batch will consist only
of Model Bs, although you will be able to buy Model As later on.
-------

Here you can see the features of each model: http://www.raspberrypi.org/faqs

Model B will have 256MB RAM and Ethernet, so it looks promising¡

Hi Wolfgang,

versuche gerade verzweifelt an eben dieses JDK zu kommen, aber die schicken mir einfach keine Email :(

Hast Du das Binary noch irgendwo "auf Lager"?

Gruß,

Thomas E.-E.
