Hi,

Having a bit of a clear out and have found some computers which might be of interest here (good for small embedded projects).

800MHz Via Epia MII Mini-ITX board with 512MB of Ram, DVD drive, small case and PSU. It's got an integrated VGA graphics card along with composite out and doesn't use much juice. Handy if you want a low power board that needs IDE where a Raspberry PI won't do.

DBox2 with Cable tuner (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DBox2). Might make a cool way to shift FTA cable channels around a home network that XBMC could hook into.

Nokia 770 tablet with bluetooth GPS receiver and car kit, runs Maemo which is a modified version of Debian - who needs an iPad mini?

Also knocking around I have a Logitech TrackMan Live PS2 trackball pointer which could be handy.

Hope that's not too off topic.

Thanks

Theo

I may be interested in that, but not sure exactly.

Probably not for me that one.

Yes I would be very interested in that :)! Maemo market sharewise didn't
really hit off, but is interesting :), and I don't actually have a tablet.

Indeed that could be useful to have as well :).
