Very interested to hear peoples' thoughts on Runningman's question.
I definately see this as an excellent tool for education purposes, and for first artical prototype boards. My team and I design many different prototype systems, and there's been a few times that as the project has progressed, we've needed to change the scope of our software. At times, this has caused us to move to a new board, which required updating system power budgets, updating system schematics and a ton of tech time. If we were able to simply swap our processor - would have saved us 10k's of dollars.
I don't see a use for this beyond the first few prototype phases, or one off builds - as once you work through and solidify the design more, you'd probably just spin your own low cost board or find a board cost optimized for the application. This is where I'm interested to hear from others.
Love the mbed video!
Found a potential bug. New nav > robotics > actobotics --- no results found I'm using a Win 10 Mobile, Phone 950XL on latest updates, with the default IE browser. I can provide screen shots to an email upon request.
Thanks Nate and SP.
When are you guys getting in the Arduino Zero or MKR1000? I'd prefer to order from SP.. :)
I missed this video - great video! Looking forward to the upcoming content. Thanks!
I miss the old NFPP videos. They inspired me to buy stuff I didn't need. I'm buying less stuff these days, with the new format of the NFPP. The last three weeks I haven't even been motivated to check sparkfun.com out on Friday (used to be something I did every Friday). Don't lose the spark Sparkfun!

Thank you for all the great work you guys do. It makes a huge difference!
I seem to find that there's a correlation between the types of NFPP's and my desire to spend moola. When there's a cool demo, neet widget, etc, I tend to shop that weekend and scurry off to another project the moment the goods arrive, leaving the prior project unfinished of course. I suspect I'm not unique.
