Hi ! Regarding lead times on Samples... I think you can find part of the causes by going to the Microship homepage and reading the document called : "Messages from the CEO- May 3, 2004 Don't miss this important message from our CEO" That you can find in the right hand menu called "Today's Features". B.t.w, you didn't say what parts you ordered, but maybe you can't disclose that... Best Regards, Jan-Erik. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY! [EE]:,[OT]: ->Other [BUY]:,[AD]: ->Ads
