Yeah - it's a shame the issue was delayed, given that it *is* prompting
people to take an interest. I've just had another email from someone in
response to it.

I'm still waiting for any sign of the one I ordered. :|

I have a Beagleboard XM now, which was delivered while I was on holiday back
in, er... October? November? I can't remember. I've yet to find the time to
do anything with it, though.

Makes sense to me (though in February I am planning to disappear into the
middle of nowhere from the 11th or 12th for a week. I just haven't booked
anything - or even decided where - though).

And since We should perhaps move this discussion to the mailing list, I've
CC'd this reply there.

<thinks: have I set the list up to accept CC'd messages?>

Cheers,
