Some issues I found with it are:
- OpenELEC with XBMC is a bit more stable than RaspBMC for use as a media player.
-
need to have at least a 5V 1A power supply - some phone charger
supplies just don't cut it and will cause brownout hangs when the
ethernet starts up.
- the ethernet is
provided over the USB2 bus so performance isn't great (although it is
enough to stream 3 video streams at once with XviD codec
-
the need to have a powered USB hub for some peripherals (eg wifi and
bluetooth dongles) as the R-Pi can't source enough current to drive the
devices
- It's only USB2 not USB3... bit of a 1st world problem.
I've
been asked to give a talk on the R-Pi at the local Tasmanian Linux
User's Group meeting in January. I'll post my talk slides when I've
finished it, some of the links on it could be of interest.
Don't bother buying from RS Components (RatSh%t)... much quicker to order from Farnell/Element14.
Cheers,
