Loot from recent Radio Shack rollout

As the Parallax products slowly roll in at one of my local Radio Shacks, I've been adding to my collection!
Here's what I've been able to "collect" so far:

Yes, I realize the packages are empty. I was too impatient to take any pictures before opening everything!

That does play into my strategy. Admittedly I am a Parallax fanboy, but I am a Radio Shack fanboy too. I really want to see this DIY push succeed.

Fortunately there's a Fry's and MicroCenter nearby that do stock parallax products. The Fry's even stocks the proto board for "emergencies" :-)
Currently I've got a couple (or more) of most things I would be having urgent emergency needs for! The rest of the stuff I can get quickly enough via internet orders. I would like to see more third party stuff like gadget gangster type of stuff available at local store.
I wonder if GG has production capacity to supply a Fry's or Radio Shack?

In theory Microcenter is a computer store but they have a growing collection of Parallax and Arduino products. As memory serves there are around 15-20 throughout the US. The problem with getting gadget gangster stuff into stores has as much to do with the lack of packaging as it does with production capability.
Hello!
I don't. I've been to Harbor Freight. Some of their tools can rival either Sears (Craftsmen) or even the Home Depot selections. And some resemble a word I won't use here. Fry's sadly never made it this far. (The economy found a crater on the moon to hide in before that idea worked for them.)
The closest Microcenter to me is in Yonkers, about an hour and half by bus and subway to me. They have less then the Radio Shack does.
From the one I cited on one of the threads discussing the issues on Radio Shack (Manhattan, NY) I bought the Gyroscope Module 3-Axis L3G4200D (#27911) yesterday. Following the way the program and available PDF files say to do so produced a welcome sight on the IDE a debug terminal indicating the boards presence in 3D space. I gave an extensive write-up on doing that in the stamp one, but to put it simply, "It just works, by Gadfrey!"
