To be fair, the 3188-based devices only started shipping a few weeks ago. There's always the question of "get better supported last-generation stuff, or current-generation stuff that won't do what I want for a while, if ever". The good news is, the generation bumps on these ARM devices happen about every 6 to 8 months, and they're so cheap that you can probably take a chance on the 3066 stuff and pick up a 3188-based one when they're better supported, in a few months... by which time I suppose they'll have an 8-core one ready to go, dropping the price of the quads below $50. Sounds like I need to try Picuntu on my RK3066 device so I can report success or failure for my particular brand.
