Carl, Thanks for the interest - it's a very small USB PIC based development board - sort of like a Basic Stamp in that it sits down in a breadboard. Example code supplied so that it shows up as a virtual serial port on your PC, Mac or Linux. If you want a little bit more information, check out the pages I've put up at http://www.greta.dhs.org/UBW - it's not much, but it's a start. I would love nothing more than for Olimex or SparkFun to actually build and stock these boards. But I have no idea how many they would really sell. *Brian -----Original Message----- From: Homebrew_PCBs@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Homebrew_PCBs@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Henry Carl Ott Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2006 3:14 PM To: Homebrew_PCBs@...m Subject: RE: [Homebrew_PCBs] Place to have small quantity board made for others to buy At 03:17 PM 2/28/2006, you wrote: >Yah, I've thought of SparkFun.

They stock a few breakout and prototype boards. Coincidentally enough, quite a few of them are olimex boards. (SFE's where I've ordered some Olimex m128 breakout boards). And if the board needs any exotic parts, they may stock them too. I guess the best of both worlds would be for olimex and SFE to stock them, then you could just order based on which side of the puddle you're on to save shipping. Really depends on the project and projected/perceived demands. What is the project? Maybe I want one. carl -------------------------------------------------------- Henry Carl Ott N2RVQ http://users.rcn.com/carlott/ -------------------------------------------------------- Be sure to visit the group home and check for new Links, Files, and Photos: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Homebrew_PCBs If Files or Photos are running short of space, post them here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Homebrew_PCBs_Archives/ Yahoo!
