Mowcius,

Do you only do transparent acrylic?

Can you do (about Arduino sized) custom acrylic boxes? We might need about 50-60 boxes in the future for a project we are working on.

Thanks in advance!

Hilarious, but maybe we should get this thread back on topic?

My first job, when I was about 15 years old, was to collect eggs and put them on trays on a chicken farm. About 15.000 eggs and about US$ 20 a days (8 hours work).

Currently I am employed as developer at a small software house, specialized in rfid.

ok, thank you very much. I went ahead and ordered one.

I've been playing with the Teensy
http://www.pjrc.com/teensy

$18 with no pins, fully assembled and tested.  It's built on a USB AVR.  Very small, much smaller than a NANO.  About the size of a mini-wheat Smiley  USB powered.  Has a few extra IOs too.  It was awesome to plug in this teensy board and have the Arduino code just work on it.

Can you still use the Arduino IDE with it? Serial communication is the same as with Arduino?

How about bootloader?

@westfw,
Not the one I was looking for. Thanks anyway!

Thank you very much!

I am not 100% sure if this was the one I had seen before, it seems close enough. I think the one I had seen here before didn't have the icsp header and also no reset switch.

If anyone has seen other versions, similar to this one, please post!

Some time ago there was a post on the forums here of, what I think, is was the smallest Arduino.

This guy soldered the few components (crystal, capacitor, etc...) that were needed to run Arduino directly to the processor or maybe he used a pin header. Not sure...

I have been looking for that thread last night but not been able to find it. Anyone remembers the thread I talk about and can link me to it?

Thank you in advance!

The hackaday article shows a price of US$ 50, but the manufacturer seems to sell it for US$ 99.

This little wall plug is actually a full computer with 1.2GHz cpu, with 512MB of RAM and 512MB of of flash memory. It comes with versions of linux, ported for its ARM processor. At $50, this cool system could be finding itself in a lot of homes. You can get more information from the manufacturer. What uses can you think of for it?

I ran into this article on http://hackaday.com/2009/02/25/sheevaplug-tiny-linux-server

So, what do you think? any use of this for us Arduino lovers?

I have dealt with the owner, Benny Wong, about 7 years ago, he was a good guy to do business with.

Assuming it is the same person, sorry to see he has fallen to practices like this

That's a great price, I just ordered one!

My job title is 'Application Engineer', which means I do some SQL querying and writing VB.Net software.

I will be unemployed per 1st of april 2009  > That's is for the first time in a >20 year career.

I don't agree
