Sheevaplug UK Distribution

New IT Limited has formed a UK based distribution partnership with Globalscale Technologies. The aim of this partnership is to achieve customer satisfaction by offering the SheevaPlug Development Kit at a lower price and with faster delivery than purchasing from the US, no costly carriage, added VAT and Handling charge which up until now meant the cost of the unit being doubled. Customers also benefit from having a local UK warranty.

New IT are not just about pushing boxes out of the door we want our customers to get the most from their purchases, which is why we have spent time to look at the innovations of others, and offer links to some of the exciting work currently being done. In time we are looking to offer a tested range of accessories and applications, thus giving the user an instant solution straight out of the box.

So what is the SheevaPlug?

It is a development platform, targeted for use as a plug computer, and designed to run network-based software services. It features a Kirkwood Series processor with an embedded Marvell Sheeva 1.2 GHz CPU equipped with 512 MB of FLASH and 512 MB of DRAM. Connection to the home network is via Gigabit Ethernet, and offers desktop class performance, and can be used to replace a PC-based home server for many applications. Needless to say, very low power usage, extremely small foot print, and very low cost of ownership make this Plug Computer an attractive option for businesses of any size, hobbyists and professionals alike.
