I do not know much about this device but it is a good old UNIX device.

Xemacs + Driver development + Assembly.

Personally I would like to finish my AXIS 213PTZ camserver and put on this small box.

Well, when MorphOS 2 is available and running on this or a micro laptop, I will buy one . . . Or Both . . . :-)

With the PowerVR graphics chip built-in we may be able to create a *licensed* SEGA Dreamcast emulator and work with SEGA to create site called "SEGA Channel" gamers can subscribe to and then download & play DC games directly on this device.

There's a whole back catalog of 8bit and 16bit SEGA games as well..

I will tell you one thing, I'd buy a product with a Genesi logo on it over LimePC or Cherrypal day because I recognize the Genesi brand..

Will there be a need to do this?

"If you recode the video in a suitable codec and for your device's smaller screen size á la "orb" prior to watching, it won't be a problem at all!"

How are you supposed to recode a flash-video on the web? Unless it works with standard Web 2.0-formats it isn't suitable as a mainstream consumer-device.

If Jane Average can't use it on YouTube and Facebook she has no interest in it.

@zoomblab

There are videos and there are videos. I'm not aware of any handheld device like cell phones that are capable of playing back and downscale a true 1080p HDTV stream from a bluray disc. Naturally, the videos are adapted for the device.

BTW, have a look here:
http://orb.com/

The 5121e is small enough to fit in handheld/portable devices, and it brings power previously unseen.

On a lean OS, like MorphOS, even the 5200b can play full size DVD/MPEG-2 videos without frame dop, and the 5121e is faster in many ways. If you recode the video in a suitable codec and for your device's smaller screen size á la "orb" prior to watching, it won't be a problem at all!

*) Web 2.0 driven, but also a home for traditional apps

*) Rich experience of music, movies and other forms of multimedia

Maybe for music, but for movies and Web 2.0 the hardware is too underpowered weak.

Me too I want one! :-)

Interesting..

How deeply involved are you in the development of these platforms?

I was under the impression this was something between THTF and Freescale, with possibly only some "PR" to the community through Genesi.

To me it seems that you are much more involved..

You have worked with end-user devices before, what was the name again, SmartBoy something?

Then you will know what the people are after. As long as the devicesuits the end-user's needs the CPU-architecture is irrellivant.

When you have a great product (with good margins :-)), that I can offer my clients, you know where to find me! :)

I need one of these ASAP :-)
