Onboard regulator is rated at 800mA with proper heatsink.
Will cut off sooner if gets too hot.
If you'd ordered from dipmicro on the 6th you'd have had it already ...
Any chance you run to YouDoIt Electronics in Needham & grab one?
Or maybe poke around Ocean State Job Lot?

I have yet to go to You-Do-It, but I have it on my list next time I have free time and am in Needham 8)
As for Ocean State, I got that covered... The wife works for them.
What's up with the sizes on these power connectors? I've seen 2.1mm and 2.0mm. Are they compatible? The Kycon KLDX-0202-A is 2.0mm according to the datasheet. I bought some similar jacks elsewhere that were called 2.1mm but now that I look at the datasheet, I think they're really 2.0mm. Can't get the calipers in to get a good measurement. I've bought wall warts from Sparkfun and Adafruit and they're called 2.1mm on their websites. DIP Micro calls all theirs 2.0mm. I haven't had any compatibility problems but I'm wondering. Seems silly why a 2.1mm part would be needed if the 2.0mm version already existed, or vice versa.
