Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

They've made a nice, professional job of it. There are always limits to what you can do at a particular price point and I think the compromises have probably been made in the right places. I was a bit surprised at the ARM chip being used principally as a I2C keyboard handler. I'm sure something lower powered could have been used there. The convoluted USB switching was a bit confusing! Perhaps he should have given the reasons for it.
