why is it so cheap?
only €68.08 (EUR)
and with 2 GBit-ports and Wifi it consumes only 5 Watts?
Looks like a must buy.

Will meteohub run on that new tiny gadget?

Why so cheap? I think the "standard" one does not come with a MicroSD card slot. The advanced or "plus" is better equipped, but more expensive I guess.

as written here: http://www.meteohub.de/joomla/index.php ... 7&catid=25

Zumindest sollte eine Portierung nicht zu komplex werden. Nervig ist, dass der notwendige SD Karten-Slot nur beim großen Modell verfügbar ist.

it should work. if not, it will quite soon. Is there someone for a group boy from dealer? I have ordered sheva 2plugs to slovenia, but out tax office and the company that driver for them, wanted to charge me aditional 80€ for the delivery... So if it is cheaper to germany, i would like to buy at least one (the biger model). So please let me know, if there is a chance, that we get it cheaper. Or maybe someone from the us, and then he sends it to me?

Regards, Uros

yes, i know all of that. the tax here is 20%, so that is just 13e - no problem. the problem is just the company, that delivers the packages for fedex, as they wanted for delivering the box to charge me some 60e for their "administrative" costs. that offcourse i didn't want to pay, so i rejected the package. that is why i would like to make a group buy to germany or the us, to awoid those costs and then the package from germany is just some 5-10e. also from the us is not so high (if not sent by fedex ;) ).

regards, uros

If it is the standard version, there is no SD at all from what I understand.. but there is an extra USB so maybe can get it to work on a stick. for the Plus version a microSD, I have not had any luck finding an SLC card for micro so far so then there is that.

Mod: Boris has identified SLC for Stick and Micro

microSD cards:
ATP Industrial Grade microSD: AF4GUDI

USB sticks:
Transcend JetFlash 185: TS4GJF185

so with an appropriate media the next big issue will likely be be support in the kernel. I have a plus on the way and will start testing soon.

If you are referring to the Guruplug:

I wouldn't even try to use it. At the moment the plug has severe heating issues that make it more or less unusable for 7*24 operations. It seems that Globalscale is working on a resolution, but they are not moving very fast.

they placed a fan into the guruplug server plus to correct their faulty design. I wouldn't recommend the guruplugs for now (I have one here and I am not convinced). SheevaPlug seems to work much more reliable now with the modified power supply.
