Adafruit covered this board in their last new products video:

It was posted about a week ago, and at the time they said they sold out
immediately, but were expecting another shipment this week.

The video shows some shots of the underside of the board, revealing the
mini-USB connector and the micro-HDMI connector, which aren't visible in
the stills on the official site. They discuss what's new compared to the
prior version, and how the board compares to the Raspberry Pi (only
feature-wise, not performance-wise). They do add that the Raspberry Pi
has more ready-to-use projects and tutorials.
