I [Caleb], finally had a chance to catch one of the live chat sessions over at Adafruit.com called “Ask an engineer“. I was pleasantly surprised. Though the show is only an hour long, the amount of information covered was quite amazing. They started out, announcing a new, this really cool looking touch screen system, product and going over the tech specs. This very quickly turned into a question and answer session about how to utilize and modify the device. [Limor], aka [ladyada] was extremely knowledgeable and [rossum], the designer who made it even showed up in the chat to fill in the rare gap. After that, there was a general question and answer period where people were firing off questions so fast I couldn’t watch them all and still follow her answers. It was a lot of fun and quite frankly felt way too short.
Be sure to check it out on Saturday night at 10:00 P.M. ET

It’s the stripy tail that causes the confusion…
Kidding. I watch the show every week. Always interesting
gonna have to ask what’s with the fruit?
Love it.
Just wish I could interface with external goodies a little more easily.
For example, 1 pin available as a chip select for the SPI bus would make this thing irresistible to me right this moment.
I wish they would do one at a more suitable time for Europeans
