- udp 15y agoUSB hub, perhaps? They appear to be using one with many devices connected in the photograph on the official website [1]. [1] http://www.raspberrypi.org/ubuntu.jpg http://www.raspberrypi.org/ubuntu.jpg
- lucasjung 15y agoIf you need a USB hub to use one effectively, then the true price just went up by a third or so. Why not make the thing twice as thick, providing room to add an ethernet port and a second USB port? Then much more of the associated costs will be incorporated into the unit.
- elliottcarlson 15y agoI think "effectively" is really dependent on the end user. If the goal is to provide an easy and cheap system for school children to work with, much like the OLPC, then internet may not be something that is available or required for the target demographic. In the case of your standard hacker, it would obviously be awesome to have all the additional items on-board, but with the ease of adding a USB hub and all required additions to it you can expand on it as much as you want in what ever cost range you can afford.
