    Good luck with your kit. I know what it's like to wait for your goodies to come in. I ordered a 7" monitor and 3 Spinneret Web Servers and look forward to trying them out in a week or so.

    Hey All...

    @Bob Lawrence (VE1RLL) Anticipation... Carly Simon song? Yeah, can't wait for the Starter Kit to arrive. Thought it might be here today, but no joy! Drat!

    @Ttailspin No, this will be my second Prop. I already have the PEK, but I'm looking for a smaller footprint and (maybe) fewer jumper wires!

    @HollyMinkowski As I told Ttailspin, I've got the PEK and it's a ball to play with. Found a lot of good ideas here already. I'm looking at the Starter Kit as a platform to further my PEK experiments.

    Happy Prop'ing.

    I have a DemoBoard (not the full kit, just the board) and have had it for a couple years now. I still use it when working with new chips, doing quick prototyping of stuff, etc. It's a very useful little board for that kind of thing. I also have a PPDB, but I probably use the DemoBoard about twice as often because it's ready to go. You'll like it. :)

    I managed to munge my order so the starter kit didn't ship till yesterday. However, living just down the road a bit from Parallax, the kit arrived today!
    I'm into playtime for the next several hours!

    Hope you enjoy it! I've put together a few tutorials (here) if you're getting started with the Prop.
