I'm disappointed there is no assembly guide to aid in properly plugging everything in the proper places. This part I'm pretty sure I can figure out on my own. Praying that the Android image that I bought from Pine64 on a 64 gb card works properly on my 2gb Pine with the 7" led also bought from Pine.
How good would my pine be to be used to run Android as a Google Play music MP3 player sending the audio out the 3.5 mm headphone jack? This is the plan for mine once the playbox enclosure arrives.
Would I be able to somehow expand the storage to have a lot more space for the MP3's beyond the space leftover on the 64 GB card like an external USB HD?
The 64gb sd card Pre-loaded with Android will NOT work for your LCD. It has the HDMI Android image burned onto it. You can always poke around the forums and find a way to use your LCD, but my advice to you would be to not bother with the LCD until your playbox arrives. By all means, burn an LCD Android image to the sd card of your choosing and test it out, but I would not actually use the LCD for anything but testing LCD sd cards until your playbox arrives. The ribbon cables are short, especially the TPI cable and you risk damaging them without some support for the screen.
Best of luck,
Matt
