Boostisbetteryeah, it is difficult right now to get just about everything. once china opens back up things should improve greatly. 09:48

Boostisbetterminute: in light of how closed the industry is (and while I agree with some of it, I admit that making it open has several advantage that you can' get any other way) would you ever consider doing something like an Intel board for the Reform mainboard, and just accept the NDA? 10:09
BoostisbetterI mean for those who want completely open there is the NXT solution, and for those who would like their hardware as open as possible but still need modern compute, or x86 based pipelines, wouldn't you still be offering something that nobody else does? 10:10
BoostisbetterA rock solid laptop chassis, with open components and batteries. Everything is repairable and inspectable outside of the Intel board. 10:11
BoostisbetterI'm telling you, that will GREATLY appeal to many. For now, because of the industry, a compromise between open and closed is the best way to have it all. 10:11
BoostisbetterThat said, I love the NXP based Reform I got. 10:11

minutei did sign the nda10:19
minutebut i didn't get access anyway10:20
minuteanyway, i think RK3588 will give a nice performance boost, i'm just curious about energy use, heat, blobs, drivers. a bunch of things to evaluate10:21
joschminute: did you receive my public key? I just need a hostname and username. :)10:23
Boostisbetterwow, is it really going to come with 16gb RAM? That sounds exactly like what we need. Hahaha10:23
Boostisbetterlooks like it will be pricey, but I'd get it. 10:24

minutejosch: yes, i'll deploy it next time i'm on a computer 10:36
joschcool, thanks!10:37
minuteBoostisbetter: yeah my near term plan is to design something around t-firefly core 358810:37
minuteBoostisbetter: i already have the design files and 2 modules incoming10:37
+ chomwitt (~chomwitt@2a02:587:dc1b:d600:c3a8:b4dc:b642:1f2)11:00
Boostisbetterminute: woah, just read that it can be configured with up to 32gb RAM. Super sweet. Looking forward to seeing how it all goes. 11:11
minuteyeah. i believe it will get enough traction/attention to get decent driver support. pine also have a board based on it11:13
kfxI would love to see a fully-functional rockchip device12:06
minutehere's a first look video about the firefly itx pc based around the module https://youtu.be/Gqpev0snAAQ12:35
joschhow will the heatsink fit into the reform?12:40

joschfrom the video I got the impression that active cooling is needed but that's out of question in the reform, no?15:02
Boostisbetterminute: is the connector shown in that video pin compatible with the Reform mainboard?15:10
minuteBoostisbetter: absolutely not15:59
minutejosch: not out of the question, but also, the soc is 8nm compared to 28nm of the current one... maybe it's possible to mostly passive cool16:00
