hahaha, no....no Rpi... it has its own linux onboard, with GUI & ssl ...a pi would be useless..
but is does seem, the chips are in, and assembly & test has begun!!...!!..!!

I'm not sure how/why you believe a Pi would be useless..

I'm also not sure that chips are in, did they indicate otherwise?

What could the pi do that an onboard linux couldn't? That's why useless....
The new.pics have the heatsinks mounted, which means the chips are under them. a 1/4 mounted alterra fpga would most likely damage the board if you tried to mount those heatsinks to them, so I'm saying, the real chips must be in, and in those pics.

Maybe the "onboard linux" is an RPi? Also, the heatsinks could easily be mounted without the chips in place for product photography purposes.

You're jumping to conclusions - although I'd be very happy if you're right. Grin
