SpinStamp ?

Any good reason for Spin Stamp to not show up in the common Propeller store pages?

It shows up at:

Store > Microcontrollers > All Microcontrollers Page 7

and

Store > Microcontrollers > Propeller Tools

I agree it should show up on the the same page as the Prop Stick USB:

Store > Microcontrollers > Propeller Chips

Hey! You're right! I never dreamed to look in the "Tools" section though [noparse]:)[/noparse]
It's a shame that 9 or so pins get wasted in that form-factor.

I believe it should also show up as a product for the BOE-BOT, (as an alternative with red warnings about the 3.3 vs 5.0 volt signal, which they already do but not in red), given that Mike Green has written BOE-Bot Basic for it and Terry Hitt (Bean) has put out PropBot examples for the Propeller PBasic Compiler.

In my opinion, there hasn't been much marketing for this module. I have two, and now the I have another complete BOE-Bot, it's going to be Propeller powered. I'm going to try and do the whole project with 12Blocks. I think it's a pefect combination.

You know what... you could buy two of these for a little more than the price of the PropStick... and get more I/O and double the RAM and Cogs! In quantites of Twenty... two SpinStamps are one cent less than one PropStick!

Ive been using the Spin Stamp in a BOE on what I call my Development Board http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=5&m=415529 It has worked flawlessly and makes it very easy to test Propeller code on. I also have a BOE-BOT that is propeller powered. I am writing code in PropBASIC for it. Hope to help BS2er move to the Propeller chip.

I have a Spin Stamp that I decided was useless until I got my BoeBot. Then, I gave away the BS2 it came with and plugged in the Spin Stamp and had some fun.

But then, I found out that the Protoboard is the exact same size as the BoeBot board. So now, I think the Spin Stamp is useless again [noparse]:)[/noparse]

But then you·find·Bill's Morpheus board will also fit and make the Proto Board useless.
