Cu,

But its just a converter from the flat pin to round pin as used in India correct? There are no voltage conversions or anything as it directly supports input voltage from 100-230V.

Is there any specific advantage in using without a flat pin to round pin converter?

a small one.. you can be sure your device wont go bust just because the adapter and plug dint fit properly and sparks flew around.

trust me, it' a very common reason for device failure.

Oh man, I held off from buying the SheevaPlug because they were only shipping at 18$ but now they're not even offering shipping on this. Guess I'll have to wait. It's bloody awesome, is what.

varkey · 03-08-2010

^They are offering shipping to India. It will come to $56

Anyway I'll wait till April and order once its launched.

I'm assuming knowledge of Linux is a requirement for these headless servers?

How'd you get that? The form said I was at an invalid shipping location or some such. With the SheevaPlug (instead of the GuruPlug) you could order two while paying shipping for one alone which is probably how I misremembered $18 instead of $28. If you can get the form to work can you tell me if the same applies here too?

varkey · 03-08-2010

^ The shipping estimater doesn't work properly. But if you create an account and add the item to cart, it will show the shipping rate to India, about $58. But the shipping charge doubles if you order two. So its useless.

varkey · 03-10-2010

Good News! The Euro Version is available now for $133

And they have revised the shipping rates, its only $43 to India by Fedex Priority and $42 by Fedex Economy and the shipping rates are the same if you order 2 plugs. Even if you order 3 plugs the shipping rates are increased only by $3-4

Me and my friend will be ordering two soon.

I _knew_ it. That's what it was like for the SheevaPlug too. Great information, varkey! I want this so badly, just don't have the money at the moment.

@blufox: this lil box can multithread? i mean, properly.

blufox · 03-11-2010

^^^ depends on number of threads.
This is decent enough for a home NAS box or a tiny web server.
Do not expect it to stream your HD movies

chirkut · 03-13-2010

^^ dude, I think it is capable of streaming multiple HD movies.
