Hi Jason.

thanks a lot for your answers. I'm sorry, I have new ones to ask you. ;)

- Do you know when the Traxster CE package will be proposed ?

- Will it be the same package as if I buy the ICOP eBox-2300 and the Traxter II separately ?

- if the ICOP eBox-2300 can be supply with the batteries or it needs to be connected on an electric plug ?

- I have read the assembly instructions and I have noticed the pre drilled holes for the Icop ebox are at the same place as the hole for the CMUCam servo turret. Is there other holes I did not see to place the Icop ebox in different way to let the CMUCam servo turret to be installed on its dedicate place. If not, how are they installed together on the chassis ?

thanks a lot,

regards,

fakajax.

Also, we have a new product coming out in a month or so that will allow you to bolt the CMUcam2/2+/3 Turret, and some other cool peripherals on top of the eBox-2300.

You can bolt the CMUcam2/2+/3 Turret onto the Traxster II itself, however.

Best Regards,

Yes, the eBox-2300 will bolt directly to the pre-drilled holes in the new Traxster II.

Yes, we will be launching a Traxster CE package soon, but it's meant for C++ and .NET application development, and not MSRS. We have written a SerializerLite service for use with MSRS under CE, but MSRS is such a huge tax to the eBox from a CPU perspective that it's just not a good solution.

So, plan on using the C++, or .NET lib under CE if you go w/ one of our CE Packages.

MSRS works great on the desktop, where you have plenty-o-cpu. :)

We get our batteries from www.batteryspace.com. I also added a note about that in the Traxster II Assembly Manual.

Best Regards,

--- Sorry I put my request on the wrong topic ---:blink:

Dear Jason,

- Is the new Traxster II can carry the ICOP eBox-2300 and the CMUCam 2+ turret at the same time?
- Can you propose a package with the Traxster II + ICOP eBox-2300 like the Stinger WindowsCE kit ?
- The 2 battery pack are required to allow the Traxster work. Do you sell them ? I do not see them in electrical parts.

Thanks for you answer,

fakajax
