<throws down gauntlet> Kodi will work on a Raspberry, how about you?

There are things happening on that front too

I just received an invite, but have a some questions:

1. Is the invite only for the model specified? I received an invite for the 11 inch version, but am not sure if I rather want the 14 inch version.
2. What is the keyboard layout for the 11 inch version? It doesn't seem standard.

1) Yes, only for the model specified in the email (presumably the  version you signed up for ?). If you'd rather have the 14" version, then place a BTO for it. Your current BTO will expire in 7 days.

2) Read my first post carefully - in EDIT 3 I explain, to the best of my limited knowledge on the subject, the keyboard layouts and have a wikipedia link too.

davide,

... and it will get (a lot) better with time Wink New build with some fixes should be out this week, so don't do anything 'permanent' on your current install.

When did you get your BTO?  

I got mine a couple of weeks ago for the 11" and I havent heard anything after replying.

I got my pinebook 14" a few hours ago. Very robust construction. RDP client running perfectly. I am very happy with the purchase but angry with DHL.  Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin
