Heading back to school or have a new AI project to get started on? We’re pleased to announce the Jetson TX1 Developer Kit SE, now available at the reduced price of $199 in the US and €239 in Europe. Registered developers are eligible for one unit at the reduced price, regardless of EDU affiliation.
The Jetson TX1 Devleoper Kit SE includes the same Jetson TX1 module with 1 TFLOPS performance, reference developer kit carrier board, and power supply, but without the USB cables and CSI camera module. Plug in a USB webcam and get started developing the latest embedded vision applications.
After applying to the program below, developers will instantly be able to check-out the Jetson TX1 Developer Kit SE from the NVIDIA webstore to place their order. Currently available in North America and Europe, with other regions coming soon. Available while supplies last, limit of 1 unit per person.
I hope it’s ok to ask this question here. Who will be responsible for pricing and distribution in other regions?
Let me explain why I am asking: I work in research at a University from Australia. The distributor for Australia looks to be Xenon (http://www.xenon.com.au). I have emailed them a long time ago (when TK1 was announced) to ask about the TK1 availability&pricing, however I got no reply. I did not insist with further emails when I saw later on the prices they set for the Jetson boards. I have since then started using other products for my research. But now I hope again to be able to get a Jetson, and take advantage of this offer. I would have used the EDU discount, but if you check on their website (BUY NOW - NVIDIA Jetson TX2 Developer Kit - XENON Systems), currently the TX2 has a “promotion” and it costs <> 1,190$ / 950USD (regular price at the beginning of the year was higher). So even with a student discount, the price is prohibitive. So, do you think it would be possible in any way to get a TX1 either at the 200USD (this promotion) or 250USD (regular price + EDU discount) in Australia? Thanks.
I know we will be opening up the Jetson TX1 Developer Kit SE promotion to APAC region later next month (China & Japan), however Australia/New Zealand may come sometime later for the SE kit. Unfortunately the increased prices there are accounted from Australian govt. duties and taxes.
Right, following then the previous pricing of TK1, TX1 and TX2 by the distributor, I expect “sometime later” the price for the SE Kit to be the equivalent of ~400 USD. Just FYI, GST in Australia is 10%, not 100%. It’s a pity, really, since you can find TX1’s on ebay <> cheaper than that. I don’t think this is how things are supposed to work, and I think I am not the only one in AU/NZ who (again) will not take advantage of this offer because it’s a clear rip-off. I know from collaborators this is not the case in other APAC countries, and can’t stop wondering if someone cares enough to check sales figures in AU/NZ and ask the hard questions.
GST doesn’t include import duties, customs brokerage fees, and the additional layers of shipping and distribution required. In the future we’re investigating if we may be able to extend the NV.com webstore service to ANZ to reduce the overhead.
Hi HZ, I just tried from here and was able to submit, could you please try again? (perhaps in incognito mode, from a different browser, or after clearing cache) Thanks!
Hi Dusty, thanks for your update. I just tried again however I am still getting the same error message on the discount set up. Any other way to check out the item without filling the form?
Unfortunately sales of the Jetson TX1 SE devkit are only supported through the webforms of the countries provided.
Do you maybe know someone in one of the other countries that could forward the shipment to you?
