It seems to me that after you have the working prototype that it should=20 not take long to build. PC boards, parts, assemble, Test (maybe?) Not knowing instruction set, architecture, available software or=20 intended additional documentation I think I ordered one with RS but I=20 did not get anything in the way of a confirmation. Bare metal is fine=20 with me if there is enough information about the interfacing details. If=20 it takes a year to sort it out I can accept that. In fact, the Project=20 has such good intentions that if I just plain lose $50, I will be more=20 concerned about the folks trying to put this together. The price is like an Arduino with a lot more promise!
