Topic: How stable is the beta firmware?

Does anyone know how stable the beta firmware (1.7.3574) is? It supports AS3, which I'd prefer to use, but if it's still prone to crashing or has some serious bugs, then I'll probably hold out.

Second question, any Chumbian's able to give an idea on when the final version of this firmware will be ready? smile

(Sorry for the cross-post.. just saw the beta forums after posting this!)

Re: How stable is the beta firmware?

It's currently prone to crashing and has serious bugs.

We're working on the firmware as fast as we can - it's one of our top priorities.

Re: How stable is the beta firmware?

A new beta/developer firmware build is now available at developer.chumby.com .  This firmware is only applicable to Infocast 8" devices and its sole intention is to allow developers to start developing apps in ActionScript 3 in preparation for the release of the new Chumby 8 device coming soon. 

We appreciate any reports of bugs or issues.
