without much delay, i received raspberry pi today (ordered few more). I failed to do much with beagle boards as they demand specific display (dvi-d), but not keeping them dead. But i wanted to do some interesting good things with raspberry pi instead of focusing on robotics.
The other good thing is my motorola defy power adapter is best suitable to power-up the raspberry pi. Specs say the laptop USB cannot drive (500mA) the pi as it needs relatively higher current (700-1200 mA). That is good. Every time i used to buy power adapter for every board.
btw, i almost ready to buy raspberry pi boards on ebay. But waiting for couple of days gave me a big price saving. Element14 charged 3k including tax and shipping charges.
will have to see how long my interest sustains on this. :)
