Is it available in the US? It4s a european electronic magazin, pretty good one to, the original is German, there are English and Spanish versions of it. You may look at www.elektor.de there you may find the links to the English version Elector and have them sending you a sample. Parts of the project you find at www.pic-basic.de.
