Hmmm, i think my design will work, but can female ipod dock connectors be obtained in big lots? That might stop me -_-

FR4 is a grade of board, not a thickness. I am thinking of entering but the deadline is too close.. will definately enter the next time around! There should be more of this type of competition on the web!!

What format do we have to provide the firmware in? Is the .hex file okay or do you need the source?

Who retains rights to the entries, winning or otherwise?

Ohhh I am so excited! I have a few ideas. Hopefully I have time...

I don't need to have firmware by then do I?

Is there a cost limit on the BOM? I'm sure you don't want anything too ridiculous (like a $75 gyro) or something).

Honestly, I am much more excited about making it then wining a prize. All I really want (if I do it) is a few of my boards (if y'all could comp the parts that would be sweet too).

Cool. I am so in (as soon as the semester ends).
