    Sure go right ahead and drop the price the day after I order one! :-)

    I thank you. I wasn't expecting that and was only joking with my post. I hope the drop in price isn't a way to try to sell off the last of your remaining stock.

    I found a supplier that can give me a great deal on Propellers and FT232 chips. Thus lowering my costs, which I pass on to the consumer. There may be a 2-3 week backorder period coming up, but I'm not dropping the design.

    I appreciate your great work keeping Propeller Platform compatible boards going... A lot of my products are geared towards it and customers are always asking where they can get one...

    Great news! I'm glad the propeller platform is going to live on!

    Thank you for all your working in keeping the design alive. I know I threatened to get a board as soon as they were available but I got busy at work (I hate when work gets in the way of my hobbies and play) which meant the board would have sat for a few months. There seemed to be high initial demand and I thought it would be better let someone that would be able to use the board get one from the initial production run.

    These are really high quality boards too.
    And well equipped!

    IMHO, the absolute best of the Propeller Platforms.

    But Martin also has a unique board - the Arduino Shield Compatible.


    I haven't ordered this touch pad LCD shield yet (life and other things soaking up fun bucks right now)
    but take a look at this LCD touch shield which would plug right into the ASC board.

    How's THAT for a sweet package?
