Donating hardware

<< < (2/3) > >>

  The H1xx series is a valuable piece of equipment, a quite mature Rockbox target, and a popular piece of kit amongst the developers.  I strongly suspect one donated to Rockbox will do little to advance the state-of-the-art.
  Selling it on eBay, and donating the money will probably do more for the current (and future) crop of Rockbox targets than the hardware itself.
  I strongly suspect you have received no legitimate bites at your offer because A)  some developers rarely read the forums, and B)  most everybody lusts in their heart after such a fine fine machine, but knows in their soul their acceptance of such a gift would benefit themselves far more than Rockbox as a whole.

Llorean:
Or
C) Already has one, and would ask for it because they very very direly want redundant hardware in case the primary one someday fails, but know in their soul that asking for such a thing would be wrong. ;)

Bagder:
I want to second, or third, the idea that donating a "normal" iriver h120 isn't gonna advance the project to any new levels.

Of course I'm still very grateful for the consideration and all.

However, I think it would be worth donating if it motivates a developer. My vote goes to Marianne Arnold, who just lost an Ebay action for an H120.

Thanks for this great offer and the support! :)
