We still plan to launch Indiegogo on time. Though personally I’m a little concerned about the public interest; so far we haven’t collected a lot of emails. Perhaps it could be:
Product is too niche, not mass market
Our campaigns are incorrectly targeted
Our content marketing is not compelling enough
Anyway we will keep tweaking it. We hope we can reach enough people, so the manufacturing can be done at scale to save cost.
Likely the new case will be released later than the Edge, as we will need sometime for RnD. We can always ship out the Edge boards first.
i had a bad experience building kernel and custom android roms on a rockchip 3188 tablet back in the days, and i sweared i will never buy another rockchip again, so another rockchip based board from khadas leaves me very sceptical in term of ability to have hardware (gpu, vpu) drivers built into mainline kernels.
The situation with the RK has changed significantly. I have model TV box with RK3328. And I can say that all the major systems (Armbian and Libreelec) work well on it. I hope rk3399 the situation is not worse.
no vpu gpu suport in mainline, only in kernel 4.4 and probably not portable to mainline, this is what i call evil and i hate this; not beter than amlogic in fact
I’m interested in Edge + Captain. I was under the impression that Edge V was strictly standalone. Which is not what I want. Because some other stuff on the Captain is also of interest to me.
. No Captain aboard though.
