TIA Jonathan -----Original Message----- From: pic microcontroller discussion list [mailto:PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU]On Behalf Of Liam O'Hagan Sent: Tuesday, 13 January 2004 10:04 AM To: PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU Subject: [AD:] Lantronix X Port in Sydney Australia. Howdy everyone, We're going to be ordering a few Lantronix XPort's (www.lantronix.com) later this week. Pricing is $61 AUD per unit plus GST. If we get another 7-8 units ordered then the price drops to $58 AUD each plus GST. Is anyone interested? we're located in Sydney, postage on something like this to anywhere in Australia should be less than $10... A bit of background, the device has the following features: 10Base-T/100Base-TX auto-sensing Ethernet connection Mature, robust operating system Embedded HTTP-compliant Web server Programmable e-mail alerts Extensive networking protocol suite including full TCP/IP stack Interactive data communications to and from the device through a standard Internet browser (using Java applets) System software upgrades via the Internet Remote configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting, including real-time device performance notification via e-mail alerts A dedicated co-processor to optimize network activities, permitting the host microprocessor to function at maximum efficiency http://www.lanconnect.com.au/PDFs/XPort_product_brief.pdf The best bit is this things is entirely contained in an RJ45 connector module. Very simple interface. Regards Liam O'Hagan -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
