Ditto on that.Who can make it work? I think they seen the KickStarter campaign and didn’t want to loose out! LoL!
In any event, I ordered 2x of these.
@joshua_lyon What can we do with this thing besides the currently covered threads? (VLC thing, Poor mans SONOS, etc)
Maybe a bit more interesting in regards to SmartThings integration since, unlike the Pi Zero, it has built in WiFi capabilities.
@dkkohler the inclusion of WiFi is nice. There’s been a lot of discussion about whether or not the various flavors of the Raspberry Pi should start including WiFi.
A number of Arduino devices are starting to include the ESP8266 chip for <$3/ea (at quantity).
The great thing at first glance about CHIP is that it is $9 per CHIP and no @ quantity is required for end user.
Was just thinking how about using it as a DVR or a light FTP server.
Finally got my CHIP!
It is based on psudo Linux Ubuntu.
Installed VLC and will start configuring VLC Thing for ST.
