Ordered some gear for my Pi; HDMI cables and SD cards, should arrive within the week. Also ordering a second Pi now that I'll get double the RAM, happy I didn't buy two at once. Including some cases as well. It'll take six weeks to arrive. Turning my first Pi into a very basic announcement system. It should be able to play sound files and text to speech, all triggered by a web application. I can then hook it up to, say, my e-mail and have it make noise and summarize the message over TTS. Or I can have the Nagios monitoring system at work send a signal when something goes down. And finally, I can let select people use it as a means to get my attention by pressing some buttons on a website. I'm also curious to see how much of a gaming platform the Pi can be, because of their low price it's easy enough to host a LAN party with some of these. The selection of games remains limited but there are plenty of awesome games that don't need a lot of power, like OpenTTD. I wonder how well DosBOX and other emulators will run on this.
