That looks pretty cool - ta for the link.

That would make for a worthy Gadgeteer module.

People like stevepressly (with his horde of rovers) and Prashanth might find it useful.

Was thinking that as well … beyond my abilities I think.

We have had this shield for months, before Sparkfun even sold these

Holding out on us Gus? Sounds like there is a flood of new modules coming just over the horizon, credit card is primed and ready to be put to the test.

He promised us 50 more before the end of the year. That was about 10 modules ago… Better extend your credit limit. I’ve got a feeling this is going to be an expensive Christmas!
