RasPi 5 announced!
https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/raspberry-pi-5/

it looks like it will be a perfect match for kodi v21+ which might be getting into beta shortly if you've been following along on the github or blog (https://kodi.tv/blog/)

seeing as xbian is already basically at debian bookworm as far as I understand things, we shouldn't have to wait too long for a version of xbian built for a RasPi 5, right? let's say possibly early in the new year?

RE: RasPi 5 announced!
Was about to post this news lol.

The only thing i did not like, in the announcement, was the price. Starts at 60 US dollars, so that means that is not going to be has affordable has the Pi 1,2 and 3.

With some luck we might see the prices of Pi 4's finally dropping to something acceptable / non overpriced.

:) :)

RE: RasPi 5 announced!
The Pi4 supply is getting pushed out to make room on shelves for the 5, so if you're a thorough and careful shopper, I'm sure you'll find one for the price you want to pay...but I'm saving my money to upgrade my Pi4->Pi5 when a version of xbian is ready/available for it. I'm not disappointed in the price, as it is a significantly more capable machine...maybe there will be Black Friday sales

I'm already working on it.
The kernel will be adjusted this weekend, let's see if the promise is kept and tomorrow the first Pi5 will be sold and shipped.
As soon as I get one XBian should be available in a few days after that, not only in the new year
