GHI's holiday gift to you

As I remember for the 2011 Holiday, GHI had a FEZ Christmas wish list, at the end GHI sent a $50 coupon and hinted that there was a new board being offered in the next few days. Most of us purchased the new board.

I think the ultimate Christmas gift is one of the new ALCAM-OEM modules.

24

Of course, a RETRO would also be outrageously marvelous.

How about a video Christmas card, that shows the main staff at GHI, their background, interests and how they came to GHI. I for one would like to know how baby Gus Issa came to be an electronics eng.

Actually no one guessed right but it doesn’t matter anymore and here is why! What I wanted to gift the community was a 4.3 port for their older devices, panda, domino and rhino… after some work we realized that this can only be done if we drop many features but then the 4.1 firmware is more useful. As disappointed as we can be, this is not happening now. However, we may add the 4.1 support within the same sdk package then you wouldn’t need to install two packages. No promises but we haven’t forgotten about the older GHI devices.

@ Gus - That was a tough guess. :slight_smile:
You have mentioned before that it wouldn’t fit, which is too bad :frowning:

Sigh…

35

@ Architect - yes but I thought it may work after the many changes we did since then. At least we tried.

agreed, thanks for trying, that would be a great thing.

Any chance there’s ever likely to be a way to add W5200 instead of the rare-as-hens-teeth W5100s? That’d be an OK new years gift seeing how you’re scrooging us here :wink:

sob - that would have been a nice gift. I have alot of emotional ties to my Fez Domino.

The ultimate gift that I could get from GHI team would be a release of powerful (something in 1 Ghz region) Gadgeteer mainboard.
