Backed this on Kickstarter. Seems honestly too good to be true, so I am antsy to get my hands on it.

According to the Kickstarter schedule, they're shipping units right now.
The last time this was posted I brought up pricing and schedule as being suspicious.

I backed it as well. Got my shipping notice a week ago and am looking forward to playing with it.

Me and a coworker got a couple. Going to try to use these on a couple of Dell machines without idracs at work.

Around same price as nonokvm. Don't know if I should replace mine with these.

I received mine today. I won't have time to play with them until tonight but I did unbox one and they look just as advertised.

It’s quite cool and works like a charm.
My only beef (and it’s a small thing) with the thing is the virtual media. It has the ability to create a virtual CD from an ISO on its local storage. It works great but because the network interface is only 100mbit it does take FOREVER to load something like a 4gb Debian iso into its local storage. So it’s better to do a smaller boot iso and do a network install if you want to use it that way. I’m using NetBoot.xyz. But like I said other than that it’s great. The build quality is astounding. It’s a lot heavier than you think it’s gonna be, which is a very good thing.
We have some machines at work that either aren’t enterprise level machines ( eg. we have a rack mounted Mac Studio) or weren’t ordered with iDRACs (Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller). That’s Dell’s version of basically what this thing does. When they start selling this in bulk, like not a kickstarter, we’re going to buy like 5 or so and 3D print a rack mount from Jeff Geerling. Maybe even put a RPi in there to act like a serial terminal server for some of our lab equipment.
These guys seriously delivered on this piece of tech and I wholeheartedly recommend it.
