I should iterate I wasn't being serious when I said that. Sorry.

I will probably use it in a new build as some form of control or another, fans, automated door, vents... who knows, the possibilities are endless.

Woah, that's a lot of interest

Bad news though, not sure what's going to happen:

I'm starting to think this is heavily oversubscribed, surely everyone can't be getting one?

I really hope i don't get an email saying that I won't get one, my creative juices are flowing.

There is hope yet lads!

I'm actually looking forward to this now, as I've just got a knackered Camm plotter off eBay so looks like I'm going to busy writing scripts for XYZ control.

I got the same email as your mate.

I was hoping if some kind soul could give me there link so I can get a Galileo for my new projects?

 

[Wraith]

It was first come first served, a link won't help any more (just checked), they simply have stopped issuing the units.
