We may ship some test units to a few selected guys next week.
We'll be sharing feature suggestions / possibilities
It will give us an idea of what to include with the first version and also take on board any other thoughts and suggestions.
Not sure if I mentioned before but the Demon has had completely new nand/rw hardware implemented that is probably going to be the fastest on the market (16mb r/w around 14 seconds etc) complete with internal integrity check routines.
So I can confirm that the next generation of the super-successful Nand-X will be completely built into the demon. We are currently working on adding Xilinx routines (may not even be required yet) - but its early days
This animal is completely different than anything done before, internally at least. Naturally the external points will look pretty much the same as all the ones used now, with a small number of changes - its the architecture of the device itself that has truly taken Dual Nand to the next level.
PS to squash the rumors - no there is no trace cutting - its not 2008 lol - and no there isn't 20 or so wires.
We have been working hand in hand with several respected and extremely knowledgeable JTAG/RGH developers on many new upcoming tools and patches - and we are aiding in developing the best hardware for the job that's going to be dominating your time over the next few months. As far as we are concerned, as an RGH device the TX CoolRunner is doing the business and has no need for updates and changes and gizmos and fancy new features that in the end only add $ and not tangible results.
Saying that, out of respect as they are a good crew and I chat to some of their members often, the XAIO360 is a very nice mod and definitely taking this public RGH hack and actually doing something better with it - we relate to you. Kudos to that team and accept our hotlink to you as a sign of good faith (for once) lol
PS Do not get XAIO mixed up with TIAO like I did. Those guys copy everyone's work quite shamelessly without a touch of credit. If you are buying devices for modding, always try to buy from teams who are actively involved in, and support real scene development
