I actually have no idea more than that a I tried to get hold of OMAP1730 proffesionaly (like 4 years ago) but the answer I got then was that you could not buy them for money, you also needed to have a good business case presented before being allowed to wait in queue to buy one.

If situation are the same now and on this particular board I don't know...

They are saying $150-$200 approximately, on the pandaboard mailing list.

Phase-I of early adopters, I kindof expected linux ports and lower level stuff to be prioritized Smile

I think Phase-II might be more random projects, perhaps a few more media projects.
