<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>I have just spoken to an agent from Mouser (U.K.)
who did actually confirm that they received some back orders of these boards a
couple of days ago, but unfortunately not enough to satisfy all those on their
waiting list, which apparently amount to over 200 from the UK
alone.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>She did say that they received the first orders
from customers for MinnowBoard Max’s back in June, and they are obviously
despatching them in date order... once they do receive stock, which is fair
enough I suppose!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>She also mentioned that they sent out a ‘back
order statement’ to waiting customers every second Wednesday, which I hadn’t
realised.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>Out of interest, will boards shipped from now on
come with the latest firmware update?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>Thanks,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>P.S. I have had a few email problems over the
weekend, so I might have missed a couple of of Digest updates!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>All is well again now
though!</FONT></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></BODY></HTML>
