What part of " Developer Board " was unclear exactly? Why is everyone treating it as "a more powerful Raspberry Pi" ?
It's not, get the facts straight, this is a "dev board", it's purpose is pretty clear, you "as a dev" use it, make a "thing" (and find bugs, ask nVidia to fix them, etc), have someone wiling to pay some $$$ for your wires-out-prototype and they you contact nVidia back and order 1000 more for your "product". Isn't that like "standard practice" in the industry since forever?
The Raspberry Pi's success spoiled this, it went from "dev only" to "everyone", and it's great, don't get me wrong, more devs are needed, but buying a board to install XMBC and call it a great success is pretty far from any "dev-ing". :-|
