WP 34s USB adapters
As some of you have already found out, after about 250 USB adaptors, all of which I have soldered and tested by hand, I have recently stopped making them. The reason is, that I recently simply haven't, and probably also in future won't find the time to assemble and test them.
I am not sure how many people are still building WP34s', but at the moment I get about two requests per month. If there still was demand for a couple of hundred (which I doubt) I could probably get the boards professionally made, but I am pretty sure that would result in a significantly higher price and I am not sure if people would still be interested at 20 Euros or even more.
Alternatively I could sell bare PCBs or kits, but I think soldering the small surface mount chip might put most people off.
Quite a while ago I sold a lot of unpopulated PCBs to a forum member (not sure if he wants to be named) but so far haven't heard of him selling either boards or calculators with boards installed. Maybe he, or someone else, would like to take over the production?
I am just a bit worried about the whole project in case I stop making the boards...
On the other hand there have been a few successful approaches at making DIY flash cables by other forum members.

Any thoughts and comments are welcome.
Harald
