Ok, questions not answered, will it be able to mine? A horrible yet somehow appealing question to my mind. But I am not sure if I understood a previous poster, if this is what you intended, but it does give me a devilish idea.
Running 4 characters atm so I see the combination like this:
Stack 2 retrievers in your hold, packaged. Or covetors. Move your ops to low sec system with station(refine does not matter). Other chars move in fighting ships to location,(and one industrial in hold, almost forgot)
INSTANT MINING Group!
Pop em out in station, hit roids, run back, load friegter to gills, escort it to refine and rinse and repeat.
But seriously one comment here that WILL make sense. Realize all the numbers are probably place holders, slots, volumes, resistances, so do NOT count on those numbers holding. 1 pg and 1 cpu? LOL, don't believe it.
My .92 iskies.

I think that the 1 cpu and 1 power grid is to stop Eve from bringing up a error. The software might not like having a ship with a 0 amount of CPU or Power Grid.
As for mining in it, I think it would be a bad idea to have turret slots on it or else it will turn into a blob in a 1.0 system.
The Stats we have seen are not final I'm guessing, so there is a chance that it might get some slots. I would like a medium slot for a shield booster or something. Also you might of noticed that it didn't have the ability to lock targets so no mining (check the stats. It has no lock targets or signal strength).

I thought you wouldent going to be able to go anywhere in space another than station to station. I.e. no traveling to belts etc. This may of just been hear say of cause. Also this freigter is going to be awesome for those fleet battles. Can you imgaine the ships? Someone loses a ship oh i know ill just got the safe spot get the fregither pilot to drop one for me and away i go again. Easy and safe and perfect. This ship could be great in a number of roles but everyone wants it just for trading and hauling!? give me the abilty to move feets and im happy.

Yes, i agree that for mining ops even for 'smaller' corp a freighter can be used, but insurance on covetors
cant be used if you want to repackage 10 Covetors and all mining stuff you need, but its way faster to have
one guy haul all stuff to teh mining op, and everyone can take a shuttle there.. when they are done, i bet the hauler have room for the mining stuff and the ore
they made up.. still dont like the zero slots :(
TomB nerfbat strikes Freighter for one extra low and med slot.

That's a nice theory, except it would be really hard to board a packaged ship in a can  .

Does sound nice, but in fact they can neither scoop loot nor drop cargo while in space, which is the reason why folks are hoping it can dock in a player structure out in 0.0.

You can fly the freighter to any location you like, the limitation is that you can't open the cargohold outside of a station. So you could fly the freighter to a roid field, but it would be pretty useless when it got there.

The freighters will be able to haul 20 battleships. They will also equalize the market by bringing the trit selling at 2 ISK 10 jumps from yulai to Yulai.
