An announcement due 1 6am Wednesday, so these $25 computers should be available any minute now.
UPDATE: First 10000 sold out in 10 minutes, so now you have to register your interest with one of the two licensed distributors. Good they're selling the basic model for $25 and a model enhanced with ethernet and usb for $35 - would not be a lot of use to a bumbling amateur like me without these, but equally it's great that they're doing a cut down version as cheap as possible.
Looking forward to seeing what people do with them. Friend Matt 2 is going to start easy, just duct taping it to the back of a flat screen tv for instant HD media centre.
UPDATE UPDATE: do not use duct tape, I learned this to my cost. It has a thin layer of aluminium running through it, if you tape over the spikey solder points on a raspberry pi or similar technology, it can make it short out and stop working.
raspberry pi: Credit card sized super cheap computer, awesome.
