So i pledged on the Kickstarter, but i may need more in a few months (possibly a dozen). Is there going to be a place where we can buy more at a later date?
I am not a computer literate person and don't understand much of what is being said here.
I pledged because I needed to replace my computer and the Pine 64+ seemed like a good choice.
I only need internet access for social media and netflix. I don't play games or use photoshop like programs.
I assume the Android system is like my Galaxy phone.
Have I made a mistake in selecting the Pine 64+?
Just curious, how feasible is it to use a Pine 64 (w/ android) to build a gesture recognition / control to play games. For example, playing fruit ninja by actually swiping your arms (not touch screen).
and if this are going to be directly integrated with the android OS,
so no need to use 3rd party app to manage them
and be able to use it with google maps and telephony
I'd like to support you, so I just installed a torrent software on my server to support you with spreading your operating system images My provider already knows and accepted that.
Hey Folks,
I received the development board, so I can share some experience thus far, if you have any questions, want me to run some tests let me know.
First of all the board is pretty big - if you are used to raspberry pi, think twice the size (check the photo for the size comparison). Personally I don't mind, but you may say whoa this is big https://www.anony.ws/image/Jt6t
For the numbers fans: Antutu: final score: 23467
If you compare that to Amlogic or Rockchip http://www.cnx-software.com/2015/11/19/a...omparison/
it seems to lag behind, on the other hand, Pine has no heatsink and I noticed very significant throttling when temperatures reached 120F.
If you want better performance heatsink is a must.

The standard range of apps work just fine, I had few crashes with app store installing antutu 3d, I guess there are some quirks of android that need to be worked out.
Netflix running at 1080p gets the temperature of the core (measured with the outside thermometer) to 110F.
KillAWatt EZ (the wall power meter) shows 4.8-5.2W while running Netflix.
Audio goes through HDMI unless you plug headphones.
Board shows great potential for whatever you will want to use it, game console / tv box, ARMv8 development machine. It needs some loving, but hey for 19/29$ you can't go wrong.
I had a question regarding memory capacity on the A64+ units. Would it be possible to offer a 4GB DDR3 option for just a couple dollars more over the 2GB option? Our news team recently wrote a story about the Pine A64 and some of our readers have suggested that a 4GB A64+ option would make the device much more usable as a PC. This would also allow the device to make full use of the 64-bit memory address space.
Please let us know what you guys think. Looking forward to your response.
