I’m surprised the announcement hasn’t cropped up here yet! It’s Cortex-A8 based, as predicted. After tomorrow’s show, I expect the c.s.a.hardware thread will grow a little. |

Are they going for a dropped aitch on “harmony”? Or is it the “ARM-mini”? Would be great if it engendered an ‘armonious concord among RO[O]Ls! |

That was one of the connotations of the name, certainly. Indeed, we bounced around the names Harmini and hARMini for easy pronunciation. Of course, I also liked the name “The Dwarf” (small and powerful), but not everyone is a fantasy geek! |

Yeah, and it’s also nearly got ARM in it! The DWARmF! ...I think you made the right choice! ;-) |

I did wonder if RISC OS users would like “The Drawf”. (Draw file). I always seem to mistype the two! |
