RoseapplePi ex LemonPi

checked some things.
Found an older Bubblegum S500 board seems the same as the first version of the actual lemon pi.
Probably renamed to attract more people.

And when i go to the http://www.actduino.org/home/resource/

And the S500 seems a renamed ATM7059.
Ohhh Well
Not a good start

I’m not quite sure they understand what “open source” means at all, despite using the string “open source” ten times in their press release.

I don't get it. What does that board offer more than Orange Pi? Actions Semiconductor chips are worse documented than AW and have less community

I had bad experiences with Actions Semi in the past...

In addition, Orange Pi 2 costs less and offers more... What the hell?

Where did you pre-order? Was there a Kickstarter or something?

Was this part of a kickstarter?

No preorder and no kickstarter.
You can try to request a sample:

Well, seems that there will no be lemonPi boards.

We will deliver RoseapplePi boards(2GB DDR) on the first half of December.......

Let's see how it evolves,Surely it will not be easy.
Let's hope that Actions semi does not make the same mistakes then Allwinner does.
It wiil depend alot how the community around this boards can grow. But with the latest annoucements in the SBC/IoT market it will be hard.
