The chip it was going to use (the JH7100) never went into production and they had to cancel the project. There's a Kickstarter for the newer JH7110 chip. http

The Beagle "Starlight" project that was supposed to have shipped in September 2021 was cancelled, but the JH7100 chip shipped on a very similar board as the "VisionFive v1" in December 2021 and is still available today. Though you'd be crazy to buy it for $180 when the much better VisionFive 2 (with, as you say, the JH7110) is now available for $45-$75 depending on RAM. It's probably correct to say the JH7100 never went to MASS production, and the VisionFive V1 is probably using MPW chips.
