CHIP Kickstarter
I'm probably going to join this kickstarter. The pocket chip would be an inexpensive portable machine to run btbuilder on. Probably have to fix the loading/saving of BTCS files as I believe it assumes little endian which I don't believe is correct for ARM.

allwinner is a big time gpl violator
No, it is not open. No, it is not $9.
Re: CHIP Kickstarter
That is annoying. I've asked the kickstarter if they will use the standard kernel or require some potentially violating code.

Re: CHIP Kickstarter
CHIP does look interesting though. SOmetime in the future people will have much more complicated and powerful yet incredibly smaller chips installed in their brains. Won't need a keyboard or controller, nor CD's or USB's. But the master control will rule all humankind. Slaves to the machines!
Re: CHIP Kickstarter
Their latest update provides information about the GPL violations of Allwinner. The CHIP will have some binary blobs to use some functionality but most code will be merged into the mainline. Allwinner is also working to fix GPL violations.
