Your guess is wrong. OMX is used on the PI.

I would have thought you would have used gstreamer-omx with the Raspberry Pi. Do you have a separate implementation instead ?

Still nobody has got one? when do people get them?

how can a product get so much hype then not deliver?! classic example of how not to launch a product.

...but I bet a lot of people now want one although they had not heard of it before the launch!

Seems a classic launch to me, lots of hype, small stock, create demand, lots of publicity etc, etc
