Hi Guys
Just one question to anybody at hack-a-day – you say its been successful, but go on then – how many have you sold!! I’d love to know.
I too ordered a bus-pirate, seeedstudio reckon the order is ‘processing’, hopefuly mines being knocked-up as I type this!
Yes to the Web Server on a business card too! I’d go for that, however I’d like to adapt it a bit so the web server can do something useful, perhaps flip some GPIO pin states here or there (or does it already do that? I didn’t read it thoroughly enough).

@Aleks Clark: because advertising prefab boards selling permanently wouldn’t of created a flash order frenzy. Multiply 30 times the amout of prefabs shipping out..someones getting rich(er) of this product.

i vote for a hackaday store, and then run device promos in parallel with article sets

MOAR BUSPIRATE. Didn’t get a chance to buy one.

Also any other HaD project that can be shipped for $30. web server business card, etc etc.

Seeing how quickly these sold out, I don’t see why they can’t be kept in stock, same for any other $30 project

I’ll probably get one soon even though it doesn’t handle the clk of anything interesting that I know of.

I preordered the Bus pirate, hope to get it soon. Maybe as a tip for the future, an enclosure?

I found the price for the bus pirate very hobbyist friendly, and I would love to see other devices here too.

Some hack a day articles have some things that are very cool but are made with point to point wiring or other primitive methods. What about adding a poll or a quarterly contest for many buildable hack a day things? The winner gets built actually and put on sale.

Many featured projects show release source and schematics, so it would not be too hard to get the specifics.

Its my fault but I missed the deadline to sign up. I would really like the chance to buy one. Please keep us posted when they go back into production.

Color me ignorant… but what exactly does it do?

I for one would love to see more projects from hack a day, the webserver on a business card, even some of the past winners of the business card design contest would be great.

its just PREORDERS that its last chance for, and the prices could always go up or down….
