I think RPi released schematics, see link. On a side note, I bought two of em, not because I have any idea of what to do with them, but because a)open, and b)cheap. Just got my first one today!

I said I doubt you'll get schematics and data sheets on all the parts

Was in reference to OUYA, not Rasp Pi.

Regarding Rasp Pi, you don't get a data sheet on the SoC though, as you do for Beagles or Arduino. So, calling it "open" is a bit of a misnomer. Rasp Pi is only "open" till you want to know what all the register addresses are or similar, then you need an NDA which is rather "not open."

But now I'm digressing from the point. Being open doesn't matter for OUYA, just like it doesn't matter for the Rasp Pi. Even without schematics, Rasp Pis would sell like hot cakes, it's a $30 computer for crying out loud. Same thing with the OUYA. It's a $100 game system _WITH_ and SDK. That's an unheard of price the same way $30 for a computer is.
