Though the DevTerm shape and screen is really not the best for emulation, but yeah the CPU core is beefier than on the GameShell CPi
And we clearly can expect a new mainboard for the gameshell at some point. Probably not soon though, the board for the DevTerm will not fit.
(also I haven’t seen anything than mockup up so far, even the PCB they show are 3D render)
So, clearly no DevTerm for Christmas (as I’ve seen it asked here or on Discord, can’t remember), and even if I fully trust ClockworkPi, be prepared that the April deadline may not be met and the product delivered a bit later.
I have no idea what website you’re referring to. I’m assuming the official clockwork pi site? You’re probably the only one who has seen it. Everyone else has only seen mock-ups/renders.
Ha glad you’ve got a good sense of humour. Was the tape necessary? Definitely not! But hey, it’s the closest I’ve gotten to physically holding a DevTerm, and confirming it won’t fit in my biggest jorts. (Jeans Shorts ;))
The temptation to glue two shells was there. But just for a joke, maaaybe not.
Umm, whats the ClockBox project? So about that NEW board, this is the link. https://www.clockworkpi.com/gameshell. If you scroll down, you’ll see a board that says NEW and UPGRADED.
Seriously, what are you seeing that we aren’t? I don’t see any reference to a clock box project. Are you somehow seeing internal data of future projects?
The “newer” CPI 3.1 board was new over a year ago. If doubled the RAM and introduced an HDMI out.
Oh right, I was scrolling the link of the main clockwork page finding the reference. I thought it was another new project.
@Metonym - given how the base of the devterm basically looks like a project board, complete with brass offset screws, rebooting the clockbox and using this as the “base” could be doable, mounting a large cube on in place of the standard faceplate. It would probability limit you to a 10” screen, but I can’t imagine using anything larger.
