How are people planning to power their rPI? is there an easy way to use the ATX PSU or are people going to run off a wall wart?
I'm reasonably sure the RPi is powered off the header on the M-card. |

The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

Correct. The M-board has a regulator that provides power to the RPi connector. |

What's the word on CC orders? I sent an e-mail through the "contact us" page interface. Is that the way to do it?

This is incorrect. why dont you let us know how RPi got power from? |

Here's pinout diagram of the RPi I/O connector. There's a +5V pin that can be used to power the RPi. On the m-board is a 12V->5V regulator that feeds into that pin. |

No. You place an order and specify bank-draft. In the order comments place a note that you want to pay by credit card. |

This is incorrect. why dont you let us know how RPi got power from? The rPi I have gets power over microusb. There are multiple ways to power the RPi: 1.) MicroUSB and your wall-wart, 2.) power via the USB cable, or 3.) power through the GPIO header pins. Since the m-board provides power via the GPIO connector, you don't need the first two... |

This is incorrect. why dont you let us know how RPi got power from? From the m-board.  This is on and mining, note the empty power jack. Power is drawn from the M-board. |

BUT By powering the pi over the GPIO you are bypassing the built-in fuse(protection) of the pi.

Which is mostly there to protect the RPi from a GPIO or USB peripheral trying to draw too much power, or a bad wall-wart. If the m-board's power regulators fail, you will have much more expensive problems to worry about than just the cost of a replacement RPi... |

That too is true. But nobody like a burnt raspberry pi.   |

about time for an update from Dave, isn't it? Ideally, he should have all the boards in assembly and testing phase at this point

Yes, but it's just 6:00 AM on the left coast. Probably isn't even awake yet, especially if they had a long night last night. We're all anxiously awaiting news - I'm going to wear out my F5 key if he doesn't post something soon...  |
