SBit V4 Thoughts


 

These are just things to think about.? I am making some presumptions here, based on the way I am interpreting emails I am seeing.? If any facts are wrong, I stand corrected.

The current 64-bit software seems to be reasonably complete, thanks to the good work of several individuals.? If I were to try and name them all, I would miss too many, so I won't try.? Thanks to you all for your hours of work.

The V4 is apparently some time in the future, as there appears to be several weeks of work to clear zBit orders before anything is done on the V4.

If I understand correctly, the only change from the present V3 to the future V4 is the change in the display from the older one to the new Touch 2.? The T2's pixel resolution is in portrait orientation, and this has to be changed to landscape.

One thing that might be worthwhile is to offer the V4 with different Pis, depending on the amount of RAM (2, 4, or 8 Gb) individual users desire.? I realize this option would have to be reflected in the pricing.? I would be willing to pay more for more memory.

Another thing might be to add the Synaptic utility and the link to the Pi software repository.? I would want to add Firefox to my V4.? I would want to add a few .PDF files I have created, and links to a few useful URLs.

Maybe some people would like to comment further.
