[Arm-netbook] Linux with GLES with video playback on A10 (Linux)

[Piyush Verma]

Thanks for quick update.

http://www.aliexpress.com/product-fm/542914515-TTL-to-USB-debug-board-wholesalers.html

This no option to ship to Taiwan.

Our first objective is to bringup VPU and GPU feature.

Besides we need our own custom board.

So we need to relayout board and produce based on our need. With evaluation
board we can get schematic and layout file.

Not sure currently schematic available in open source is workable or not.

Besides that we also looking for some company in china who could provide
re-layout service.

In future we may bring board like Respbery in low cost for community and
education.


What's suggestion what would be right way ?
