Shipping options suggestion

cjohns — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 11:03:15 GMT

I wanted to purchase a couple packets of pre-crimped wires and an $8.99 infrared sensor. I just barely made it over the $20 minimum. But I then had to cancel out of the order, because I did not want to spend $11.00 on UPS Ground, for a few wires and a small sensor. I suggest you add an inexpensive USPS option, at least for small orders where UPS is over-kill.

Business opportunity to capitalize on

Saw your post about the upcoming Wall-E movie from Pixar. Saavy president and "supreme being" that you are, I'm sure the cube-shaped chassis for mounting on Traxster, and Traxster's new dirty mustard-yellow paint job, is already in the works? ;)

New Product Suggestion

I am finding the five analog sensor ports on the Serializer rather constraining. My 3D accelerometer takes up three of them. So how about this for a new product: an expansion board for analog sensors. Perhaps it could be I2C based. Or is there such a product already out there that you could refer me to?

Website mistake

The home page of your website, check out the "picture button" with the Traxster on it. The text on that image reads "Robotics Studio"; it should probably read "Robot Kits", right? Further, if you hang the mouse over this image button, the tool-tip that pops up says "Robot Controllers" when it too should probably read "Robot Kits". The sighted and the vision-impaired will both be confused :D
