Hi,

Unfortunately not much really.  :-(
Well not much on the prototype, I have only been getting the odd bit of time here and there so I have been playing with some other designs, mainly the A1200 and A2000 designs, but these designs wont be made until the prototype is tested and proven to work but I am still confident it will.

I will continue on the prototype now the chaos of Christmas is out of the way   :-)

Hope everyone had a good Christmas and new year bash.

Hi,

I'm curious (SP?), how much time have you spend on designing this ? Must have cost you a small fortune allready (time = money)..


Gezz I wouldnt like to think, the Motorola Dev board cost about £500 on its own and the last prototype cost a fortune (I doubt I'm gonna use them again), the thing to remember is I didnt have any of the needed bits and bobs so I had to go out and buy them, on the up side I probably havent spent £2k on the project yet which isnt bad for a hobby... I could have spent more modding a car with no trouble.

As for time... well Im not the fastest worker thats for sure but most nights I spend some time designing, I really should spend some more time on the actual prototype though. :-)

Hi,

why have you begun the A1200/A2000 design, instead to work on the first CF-4000 prototype?


I am still working on the CF4000 prototype but it takes a while to set it up and pack it back away after so I only get to work on it when I have a couple of hours to work on it, the rest of the time I sit down and play around with a few designs which only takes a couple of seconds to load and close.
I actually worked on the CF4000 today but nothing to report.

IMHO should be better (for you too) to attempt to finish the CF4000 and see if it works on a real A4000 . . . .only my 2 cents


Yep, I must get the CF4000 working, but when I cant work on it I work on the other designs... plus there are times when you just cant be bothered to do anything but sit and play on the computer.  :-D
