There is an interview here with UK distributor Graig Rothwell
http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/Vario...ews.asp?c=8667

it contains a lot of background and current information.

Pre-orders can be made at the end of September via http://openpandora.org. The first production run is only 3000 units so be quick.

Yeah, there's also an article on Engadget on around Christmas release date and price of around £200.

Is there an RSS feed from their site, so you can keep up on news? Not just the developer blog, but "hey, we started accepting pre-orders today!" or something like that level of news? ... I know, wishful thinking.

But, at that price, I could almost consider it to be a donation to an open source project, even if the device never meets my needs. (though, I don't doubt that it could)

There's a mailing list for it.

yeah. I saw that. Rather have an RSS feed for it. That way it doesn't clutter up my mailbox(es).

Subscribers to the preorder mailing list will receive one message and one only. It'll be something like this: "It's ready. You can order now."

I don't know how low your clutter threshold is, but I can easily live with that.

I'm interested to know, out of all the people proclaiming their desire to purchase one of these devices, how many of you can tell me what sort of software it will be shipping with?

Well, I'm not committed, and I can tell you all relevant details.

It will be Linux!
It will be Free!

Of course, same goes for Softlanding; someone should get working on an SLS port for the NITs...
