Penguin, trade + donation

I got one of the Penguins at UPEW and it's fully assembled and working, the only thing it needs is the board repair documented by WBA Consulting to keep it working after a reset. I was planning on giving it to a friend but he's stopped working with microcontrollers. I'd hate to sell it since I got it free from Parallax, so I'll take it for one trade plus a donation.

For the trade I'll take almost anything, sensor, robot control board, old hard drive, or preferably a Linux functional wireless card.

For the donation you can just pay what you think is feasible, I'll send you a Google checkout invoice for the amount you want to pay and I'll give it to my priest, Father Reginald. He can then send it to Nigeria for free with Catholic Charities. Last time I sent him money it went to support Monica with her education, but this money I'm hoping to send to her father as he had a hernia last year and can't work.

Anyway, hope adding a trade to the donation didn't complicate things too much? I really don't want to get money out of it, all I want is that Linux compatible wireless card :smilewinkgrin:

BTW--I'm not sure I have much money for shipping. Would you have any problem paying for $5 flat rate?

    I just had someone PM me that they would like to send me a good wireless adapter and BS2px. I just wanted to make a note here that I would rather get money to support my cause, so the adapter and a $50+ donation would have been ok. If I have to I'll take that offer and give away the BS2px to someone who has a project it could be used on, but either way I want to be able to donate and preferably to my cause. Clear as mud hopefully?

    I've had no better offers so I'll take what I have. I also found someone who could use the BS2px more than me so I'll send it to him. I wish I could have gotten more money for my cause...ah well, what one wants doesn't always happen.

    BTW, I still have LCD's for sale, and I'm still donating money off of them :) I just had to mention that since I got the first order in a while for them. Check my sig for details. $20 for 10, I donate $5. For pricing on the other quantities send me a PM or read through the other thread.
