NVIDIA Jetson Nano: A Feature-Packed Arm Developer Kit For $99 USD

109euro across the pond...delivery time 16weeks....meh

Well yeah that what VAT usually does for the prices, I'm not sure that includes VAT to this device though. But usually nvidia shop adds VAT for graphics cards. Seems to be now early April for shipping date.

And it also has a pricing that says that the developer kit is $20 cheaper than the SOM.

$129 vs $99 is $30 diff... mine calculator said

Or in euros that would 109€ or 139€ i guess

The nano SOM contains 16GB eMMC 5.1 flash
As far as I can see, the SDK is the SOM with heatsink on an interface PCB that can hold the SOM (with eMMC) and a micro sd card.
The SOM fails to mention M.2 wifi, but it has loads of pci lanes. The interface PCB mentions an M.2 connector with key E, which means PCIe ×2, USB 2.0, I2C, SDIO, UART and PCM.
I can only ask Michael to confirm or deny the specs as shown on the nvidia site.

says that developer kits are reference carrier boards with the SOM

And it also has a pricing that says that the developer kit is $20 cheaper than the SOM. So: the reference carrier board+SOM is $20 cheaper than just the SOM. I think Nvidia must fix their faqs and product website, because this is getting pretty unclear, unless they really mean that more hardware is cheaper than less hardware.

What a dire shame that there's no M.2 disk and that it relies on SD cards that absolutely *suck*.

I looked hard at the pictures, but I fail to see any M.2 form factor.
Now M.2 wifi can mean anything, as the M.2 can sport PCIe, SATA and USB.
I also don't know what you mean with M.2 disk... do you mean SATA or PCIe?
The sd card is a big meeh. Either armfriendly or odroid emmc modules please... sd cards are for PI's that are not meant to run 24/7 for years and really using the storage.

Maybe that is what $99 means, 109€ plus 3 to 4 months wait

That is how marketing works a guess, you launch something early spring so that people have what to talk about during summer

Same issue with re-clocking like the big GPUs, or is this stripped down enough for a SOC to have some simpler to administer voltage/clockrate regulation for the whole chip?

I wonder if Nvidia realizes just how much their logo looks like a snail. They'd probably say nautilus, but I'd say snail.
