Hi,

in principle every support-device for stamp can't be bad esp. for folks like
me that are not very much into electronix and cannot easily invent there own
stuff. The ONLY real disadvantage of the basic stamp as I see this is the
fact that it cannot do two things at a time. This often forces you to
programm in a strange ineficient way and there are even things that you
cannot do at all.
Rather than using one stamp for each thing you want to do at the same time,
could there be a support-chip that can make the stamp at least seem to be
able to do that?

Once I started, (grumpy grumpy!) the only other thing bugging me is the fact
taht you can only use if/then to jump to a programm but not to change
variables and stuff, WHY is that so?

Besides of that I LOVE the stamp! ;-)

greetings, Uli

    Thanks Al,

    I will have a look at your site, most of the time shipping time is not the
    problem but shipping costs. They often are higher then the price for the
    thing you buy...

    Thanx,

    Uli
