HB-25 availability

Hi guys,

Is there an update on shipment for these babies? I have a project waiting on 2 of them and while I have no shortage of projects, I'd like to be able to schedule for it. I thought they had a ship date of 4/14 with pre-order. Has there been an unforseen snag?

Thanks,

- K

    Hi MachineMonkey,

    No unforeseen snags, only unforeseen demands on our product staff for other products. On Monday I'll meet with our production staff and get these babies built.

    Sorry for the delay.

    If you need them now, Lynxmotion has them in stock, for $39.00.

    Well, I'll be darned. I've already ordered (a few weeks back) from Parallax, but it simply didn't occur to me to shop around for this item. I'm very much surprised it is cheaper elsewhere.

    Okay, here's the situation. Our current build of 300 units will be finished within two weeks. We experienced a delay on the PCBs.

    You won't be able to find these cheaper from our distributors anymore - they'll all be selling at nearly the same price due to their cost from Parallax.
