I really Really like adafruit - Lady Ada has lots of good stuff for sale, and if you are in the Northeast (they are in NY) shipping is relatively cheap and fast.
https://www.adafruit.com/category/105
their starter pack for ~$100 is a good deal IMO. I ended up buying that and an extra Pi/Pi cobbler breakout from them.

I just bought an Arduino board... it's said to be something close to RaPi... do you guys know some project that I can use in my board?
Thanks in advance!

Arduino is quite a bit different than the raspi, but there are good tutorials here for learning the Arduino: http://learn.adafruit.com/category/learn-arduino (not to keep pimping lady Ada's stuff) and the most fun general DIY site there is IMO -- http://www.instructables.com/tag/type-id/category-technology/channel-arduino/

Newark Element 14's Canadian page http://canada.newark.com/raspberry-pi/raspbrry-modb-512m/model-b-assembled-board-only/dp/43W5302 and Amazon Canada http://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B00AKQA0X6 are a couple of the places you can purchase a Raspberry Pi from in Canada.

Nice
Very Nice Work

the raspery module works pretty nice

do any of you know much about building robots with the Raspberry Pi?

What kind of robot where you thinking or making? Typically most of the robots I have seen use the Raspberry Pi and Arduino together to make a functioning robot. If you can provide me with some more background about what your interested in making I can try and help you out.

I was thinking of making a 4-8 wheeled car with a webcam.

Sounds like an interesting project I would recommend dividing the robot up into two system to make it easier to design and build, the wheeled car and then the webcam. Start with a sketch of your design and then go from there. For the car part of your design I would recommend looking into use Arduino to control a couple of motors and attach the Arduino to the Raspberry Pi then. Once you have the basic car working you could make a place on the car to mount a webcam that can be attached to the Raspberry Pi. From here you could determine if you want to control your setup using a remote control, a automated script that runs off the Raspberry Pi or other control options. If you break of the project of building the robot into smaller sub-sections it will be easier to build. Let me know if you have any questions.

I was also reading about a chip you can get called the PiBorg or something like that and it allows you to control up to four motors with the Pi, thanks for your help!1

RPi/ Asterik & FreePBX

This thread is dedicated for Asterik /FreePBX RPi project. The intent of this thread is to compile all information on installation,upgrade, mods,hacks, tips, tutorials,suggestions regarding anything to do with Asterik or FreePBX running on RPi. This is a general thread that anyone can contribute their knowledge regarding this topic as I am new to the Asterik scene. But am eager to get this running quickly since I received my RPi today. Some useful websites that have got me started to a quick start is posted.

Anyone here managed to interface their pi with a regular PSTN phone line? I've got an idea for a project with asterisk, but I don't know how to get it interfaced with the phone line
pbxiaflash has a working image already for both the 256 and the 512 versions of pi.

You will need to use an ata to interface to the pstn network. I personally use a Cisco 3102 for my connection but others are available.

What you want is a Linksys SPA3000. Usually less than $40 on eBay.
If you want something else, you need to look for a FXO adapter.

Looking for people that would like to join to a new hardware project

Hi,
I would like to create a wireless device with some sensors and servos... pretty like a robot but with a clear and dedicated purpose. I assume that an android, arduino, or a raspberry pi driven device would be a good choice since it will be a standalone device that must have internet conectivity, to be operated remotely.
My problem is that I'm a software guy, with no electronics skills and I will need assistance with all hardware related design side. Prior to create a kickstarter project.
If any reader thinks that have the expertise that I need, please contact with me. You could join to an exciting new project and I will reward you for your time and efforts.
well i don't think i have the expertise but i'd be glad to help if i somewhat can and certainly would love to observe the development of the project if not participate somewhat in it.
i can however tell you that arduino<raspberry pi<android in both capabilities and need for better hardware and with that in cost too

I may be able to help out (have some experience with some electronics circuity) to the same degree as notrium
I am an Electrical and Electronic Engineer, with extensive electronic design know how, however my time is limited though I'll help if I can, moreso if I have more info on the project.
Ownership, rights, usage/purpose, timescales, budget.

I'm down to help as well. Android isn't a device though. I prefer MSP430 vs Arduino and beaglebone black vs raspberry pi. It depends what you want to do.

that sums it up prety well all depends on what you wanna do,
i've got arduino (and a few other micros) and android experience
be prety keen to do sumthing

i dont mind a blast im not as clued up as some on here with android phones and such but was a senior bench tech with bskyb so know my way around motherboards and diagrams.

Open webOS on RaspberryPi

Apparently I can't post links yet, so please pardon this convoluted post!
webos-ports.org have a page about the Raspberry_Pi - they say a port is easy except for Qt4.8...
But now... Qt5! On the Luna_Next page you'll see the sys-manager is rewritten with QT5.
...and QT5 here over at raspberrypi.org if you search for the page: qt5-and-the-raspberry-pi
I'm not a developer, but I thought I'd post this here. The webOS-ports team are too busy getting to Alpha3 to do this. Given the nature of this site, I wondered if someone would like to try. To my uneducated eye it seems the jigsaw pieces are there.
I can't find much sign of a successful Android port on the Pi. It's stripped down nature sems to make it problematic. But webOS is essentially a UI to a full Linux kernel - in fact the system sans UI has already been ported. Search the RPi forums for: "WebOS lives on the pi "
What's the advantage? You get a mobile / tablet OS on the Pi, Kudos and maybe some from the RPi community put some work in on Open webOS if it is available to a broader community (2M+ Rpies sold)
Anyone want to try?

Anywhere Console for Raspberry Pi

I wanted to use RPi on the Go, And needed console access while outdoors. So I ended up designing console adapter that works with PC, Android and iPhone.
we have created kickstarter campaign for this so all those have similar need can get it. please support us.
please visit PiConsole on kickstarter to support.

I find no projects.
Very interesting project. Good luck!
(I found it easily on Google)

Style and Function to your Raspberry Pi with a retro feel

Hi Everyone,
I have got a lot of feed back from my case that I made for my Raspberry Pi, so much so I am starting a Kickstarter campaign early 2016. The case and my progress can be seen here;
jamesoconnordesigns.com/Raspberry-Pi-With-Ice-Cream\
If you would like to be kept up to date feel free to email me and let me know what you think. Looking forward to reading your responses to this project!
Thanks,
James
