I didn't quite expect it to get so much interest. If ARMOpendous turns up, proto2 can remain as a DIY platform for Rockbox devs/hackers/modders. It would be hard to achieve such a low cost module with a low volume, and there seem to be lots of mini2440 hackers out there. I imagine the ARMopendous based player will be called proto3 or something. ARMopendous would then become the preferred Mostly Open hardware platform. In the meantime we are gaining useful experience and it is helping to clarify some of the design ideas. If ARMOpendous doesn't turn up... plan B might be to migrate from proto2 to a partly then full Open target. By the way, there are several suppliers of Mini2440 boards on the web, you might find one more local or with better support - unless you speak Chinese. Hi Daniel,

The ARMopendous hardware is suffering delays, so this “proto2″ based on a commerical but cheap module was a stopgap. I didn’t quite expect it to get so much interest.
