    Odd. Seems like a winner form factor for a little Nvidia Shield replacement / TV gaming machine. Wonder if there is an inherent flaw we haven’t heard about yet.

      the Developer Kit product comprehensively has not met our usual standards of excellence and so we are reaching out to let you know that unfortunately we have made the decision to pause this product and the support of it, indefinitely.

      It sounds like they fucked something up.

          My guess is the silicon had fundamental flaws, and it was cheaper to scrap the project than fix the issues and fix it.

      The inherent flaw is Qualcomm actually having to properly support one of their chipsets directly to customers for once, something they’re apparently really bad at. This box has had some pretty bad press already, mostly due to the software being abysmal.
