Good day to all. We are currently working on a project which will eventually be manufactured in larger quantities than we can handle ourselves (1K - 100K). The first thing that comes to mind when contemplating large quantity low cost manufacturing is China. I'm looking for tips on how to go about searching for a suitable manufacturer in China and, if possible, some contact names. The current design is a single-sided card with all through-hole components but could be re-designed for SMT if there are significant cost savings in doing so. I suspect the customer will also be looking at having the unit put into retail packaging. dwayne -- Dwayne Reid Trinity Electronics Systems Ltd Edmonton, AB, CANADA (780) 489-3199 voice (780) 487-6397 fax Celebrating 22 years of Engineering Innovation (1984 - 2006) .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .- `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' Do NOT send unsolicited commercial email to this email address.
