Just to inform you, RELEC has an arrival of ARM controller for Minimig
http://relec.ch/frch/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=64%3Aarrivage-de-controleur-arm-pour-minimig&catid=1%3Arelec&Itemid=8&lang=en
Please contact: info@relec.ch


I'd just like to point out to any Minimig owners out there that the ARM controller has TWO important functions:

#1:  It is a lot faster (especially with larger HDF images) than the PIC.

#2:  Updating the ARM is much easier than the PIC as it takes the update file for reflashing off the SD Card instead of having to mess around connecting the Minimig to a PC via a serial link.

@Darrin

yes of course, thank you for this for these precise details:-)


No problem.  I wouldn't sell my ARM controller for $1000.  Great bit of kit.  :D
