Folks, The first batch of PCB/CPU kits went out this afternoon. These are mostly headed for UK buyers. I've sent individual emails to those of you who's boards have shipped - apologies to those not yet on their way, but it's been a lot more work getting the CPUs flashed & tested,

Ok! Thanks for the quick response, I'll keep an eye on this message board, when there are new PCBs + CHIP you can count me in! (and I would LOVE a set of those square push buttons as well, only if you have them of course.) Greetings, Ilja > Hi Ilja, > > > - All these posts about

Folks, I've had an email from Olimex to say they can see that the 2 boards were missing from my shipment, but they can't find them, and reckon they probably got mixed up with another customers order. So they are running off new boards for me today, and will ship them by mid-week.
