Title: New Microcontrollers
Post by: Tesla on July 06, 2009, 01:26:58 AM

Hi all,

Is SOR planning to release other microcontrollers, like the one on the shop page?

Thanks,

I am thinking $80 but I want to consult with Admin before I set the price.  I don't want to be too competitive with the axon.  I'm primarily targeting the arduino mega.  I just modified adaboot to support the 640 and I was uploading sketches today.  I also plan to support the 1280 and 2560 mcus in the future.  I should be able to use the 1280 with the standard bootloader, but I don't have a board to test with.
