Guys, I have been thinking all night about what you told me. It looks like, the $299 USD will be an expensive board and people may not want to buy the board for this price.
What if we make an "OpenRex Educational Kit" for children of 10/12+ with tons of examples from simple microcontroller programming and LED blinking (+ bread board circuit building) up to writing a Linux application with a nice GUI and simple game programming?
Would you buy this for your kids or for you even if it would cost $299 USD?
I think your board would be attractive at $299 if it came with the full (not subscription) Altium design course you have for it. On it's own it's just another a nice board but niche with no real community. Look at it as a seed to grow a community.
Which of the courses would be useful with the board?

Not sure how much crosses over to this board, but what about your Advanced PCB Layout Course or a course specific this boards design, the process which you can't get from the design docs.
OpenRex is new, so there is no course about this board (yet). My plan is to make a software course for it (how to port Bootloader and Linux on an ARM board). Advanced PCB Layout is based on Rex module + baseboard.
Maybe, the software course could be sold with the board. It is a good idea. Thank you.
