Blinkie boards
Jan. 22nd, 2011 09:52 amThe board house sent me an email that they'd reviewed the order, found no problems and scheduled it for production. They say "delivery on Feb 10" - I don't know if that means they ship on the 10th or they expect me to have it on the 10th.
Normally they'd have it to me much sooner than that, most people seem to get their orders from them in 10 days worldwide, and that they pretty much always beat their estimates, but the Chinese spring festival is Feb 2-8, so I don't know. If they show up ON Feb 10, I will be able to solder together a few boards before packing for Capricon.
Oh well, they'll get here when they arrive. I do need to order up some other parts though, I originally only ordered enough parts for 100 kits.
EDIT: on lighter news, after hours of looking for someone who even HAD the LEDs that I want, it turns out that not only does DigiKey have them, but in 1000 quantity, they significantly undercut the Hong Kong/eBay sellers.
