Subject: Re: Status on main processor board?

From: "Grant Richter" <grichter@...>

The problem is that I am not getting a warm fuzzy about Basic Micros commitment to the
Pro module product line.

If we go to all this trouble and they discontinue the 28M, where are we?

On the other side, the 50 or so sales of 28M modules that would come from this board,
might be enough to get some momentum behind the 28M product.

The responsibility falls to the manufacturer to move the product forward, or give a clear
indication of their intentions.
