Andreas_Wolf,
Quote:"We" as in "the MorphOS Team"?
As a matter of fact, the MorphOS Team alone decides which hardware MorphOS is going to run on. There's no way "we" could make run MorphOS on an ARM based tablet (not even on a PPC based tablet) or any other hardware we might be fantasizing about. However, you might offer the MorphOS Team to join them in order to port MorphOS to ARM tablets and create your "MorphPAD"

At least 170 USD would account for the tablet plus SD card or USB stick. That would leave less than 30 USD for the MorphOS license. Do you think the MorphOS Team would give the licenses away for that price when currently it's more than 5x of that?
Hmmm.
More sales meens licence price can come down.
Its simple math.
How much is AmigaOS4.1? about £100 ok and how many sell? say if 5000 sold yeh on hardware that too expensive.
Now try Morphos on sd or usb stick for FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! worth over £159.99 when you buy the new MorphPAD!
We sell 15000 units and a contirbution goes to the MOS Team...... say £50 for each unit....
how much is that?
--------------------------------------
Ive just seen the nicest white sleek A9 Tablet for £100 plus mos £50 contribution and shipping = <199 worldwide!!!!!
ARM or PPC dont matter you can still run an emulator for old stuff.
We need to move into the future and ARM's possibly going to last and be cheaper.
But I think the MorphPAD could also be the first G4 PPC Mac in a Tablet in the world also. tbh Both versions would be nice:)
MorphOS-Mobile V1. ARM or PPC dont matter:)
This is the way forward for US as in the whole of the Amiga Community:)
P.S. I visioned the MorphPAD in the Genesi developer forums about 4 years ago now then a while later the IPad came out.
It really annoying tbh.
Regards.
