Hello,
I am planning on buying the fez panda 2 and fez touch. I alread have the 3 pin eblock shield http://www.ghielectronics.com/catalog/product/147. Will the fez tocuh interfere (physicaly) with the 3 pin eblock shield?
Thanks,

I’m not 100% positive, but they should not interfere. I’ve used the Connect shield and Touch together, and the eBlock shield is about the same dimensions as the Connect. If they do get to close for comfort, all you need to do is get a set of header pins like Shield stacking headers for Arduino (R3 Compatible) : ID 85 : $1.95 : Adafruit Industries, Unique & fun DIY electronics and kits and “jack up” the eBlock shield.

According to this picture the e-Block shield isn’t any longer than the FEZ Connect. So, you should have no problems.
