Yup, that would be the correct part number. Or course neither Mouser or Digikey carries it, in fact Mouser lists it as obsolete. What I'd really like to find now is the X version fuse drawer, since that appears to be the only real difference between the X and S parts. I spoke with Digikey, they don't carry it.

I'm not so sure about that. I think it'll largely depend on how many early adopters there are and I for one have no idea how many of these they'll sell in the first 6 mo or so compared to how many iPhones/Touches there are already out there. It's not like iPhone sales are dropping off a cliff either and they'll likely prop those sales numbers up with at least updated firmware or the rumored V4 phone itself (OLED, etc).

Lily's daycare would closed today (provider's daughter was sick) so I'm home playing daddy daycare. She'll go down for a nap in 20 minutes or so and then I'll get to work trying to finish up the Ventus preamp project.

Here's a crappy update, turns out that the Corcom modules that I bought are not what I was looking for. While they have a "voltage selector" the type of setup it is intended to be used with "jumper type applications"? What the eff is up with that? If I wanted jumpers I'd use jumpers... Pretty pissed off right now as I can't see anyway to adapt these and get them to work as I'd hoped.

I saw that live last night (on TV anyway), it was a pretty funny moment.

Vicki is in fact a lady, however grawk, who you quoted is most certainly a dude.

I'm with you on that one. Fidelity is already compromised in my office setting with phones ringing, computers humming, office mates yacking, etc. I don't notice the handful of FLAC's amongst all my MP3s. Oh, the horror.

So I ordered these thinking that they were going to be New Stock as listed on the website and what showed up were clearly used pulls complete with solder on them and bits of wire. Not a big deal for my purposes but still, don't tell me they're going to be new if they aren't. I called Electronic Surplus this morning and they were very easy to deal with and said they'd look into it and if new ones are available they'll send me them and if not they will contact me to arrange something else. This is the second instance of great customer service I've had in the last 2 days. Also, if I get the replacements I'll send out a couple of the used pulls to interested parties.

My yells at me on a weekly basis to get rid of mine. She calls the DIY lab "The Hatch".

Go with your gut, file a dispute on the first transaction, and contact ebay. The guy sounds like a fraud.

Woke up with Lily and made blueberry pancakes and sausage for breakfast for the family. Mmmm, sausage.

Feel free to use these. n_maher's Album: smileys

I bet that setup is cheap.

Yup. The hope/plan is to build a large one to sit on my soldering table to hold that rig. We'll see how it goes.

Yesterday 1 sheet of 1/2" baltic birch plywood, cut into 16" x 48" pieces, which I then ripped down to 14" wide shelves 50 1/2" nuts 100 1/2" washers 8 1/2" x 12" pieces of all thread Today we'll find out if I can actually make anything out of this.

Uh...yes you did.

I did, I've just been pretty busy this weekend and haven't had a chance to do much with them. The fit and finish seem good, so all signs point to being very happy with the purchase.

Who do trust to have better ability to protect your data, some integral Windows firewall or a server farm that has a vested interest in keeping your data secure? I'd wager my home computer is 10x more vulnerable than most cloud setups so unless you're keeping your data on a dark network you're kidding yourself thinking it's "safe".

Ugh, that makes 3 events in March that I'd love to attend.

I can imagine it being pretty hilarious running the Remote app with simulated coverflow or Ipeng on it to control my squeezebox. Is that so wrong?

Translation: I will buy 3 of them, sell 2, then buy another 1.

Just got back from grabbing a cup of coffee with Voodoochile/Mark who was kind enough to repair and return my EAD DAC. It's buzz free, woot! Now I get wait anxiously for UPS to show up with the Fisher Customs.

In all seriousness have you guys discussed anything with the hotel about receiving packages prior to the meet? I might be shipping stuff in, not sure yet.
