lets see if they actually contact us or if it was a marketing hoax

Following up to my question on IRC, just in case requisite eyes weren't there when I asked:
< me> any news on the belkin devbox seeding yet?
< jow_laptop> vdotplaw: "belkin devbox seeding" ?
< me> jow_laptop: their WRT1900AC announcements, said they'd seed kit to the community before release
< jow_laptop> vdotplaw: no hardware was received by openwrt

(Note that what I said about seeding was from memory, I didn't bother looking for a cite but I'm 99.9% sure it was out there in their original announcement somewhere)

Brings me back to wondering how, in two weeks time, they're expecting to release hardware that'll have stable, supported OpenWRT out of the box. Personally, I'm loathed to pre-order if even no devkit has been tested. It could be months before proper OpenWRT is stable, let alone peer review on the AC stuff happens (Do we even know if we're talking a proper open source driver or binary blobs...)


Any further info out there appreciated.


Cheers,


Pete.
