Thanks Roy.
Don't send money yet. I'm not sure how much the boards will be, but
somewhere around $20 perhaps. It depends on quantity, and I'll wait to get
a proper count when things are a bit further along. I'd like to offer
parts kits too, but I don't want to deal with heavy/bulky/pricey stuff like
chassis, heatsinks, or transformers. I think I can offer the PCB, and
component kits for each major section.
As for a timeframe, I should get a few protos in a week. Then I need to
build one and check it out. Then I need to spend some time on software
before finalizing the board. Then I will get a commitment from folks
planning to purchase boards/kits. Production boards will take up to four
weeks. I may or may not have software full-featured before the boards/kits
ship, but I hope to have it in at least a reasonable state. The folks who
want the optional micro will get one at least programmed with a bootloader
and version 1 of the software. Then, I can update the software as needed
to the web, and you can download the latest code through the PC serial
port, into the flash PIC.
Add in to the mix that my life is a continually-morphing space-time
continuum, with very elastic boundaries. An evasive way of pointing out
that I am often interrupted by other stuff.
Anyway, making progress at the moment, and having some fun too.
