a) I have the beta tester list for the VC Pulse Dividers. I'm waiting for 1 last
SW tweak from Old Crow and then I will ship. I spent all afternoon working out
the mechanics of turning it into a 2U wide module. There will be 6 pc boards: 4
jack boards, a display board and a CPU board. The jack boards are pre-stuffed
AND pre-soldered because they are used on the 600 and the 650 as well. Soldering
will be ∗quite tight∗ and so this will get a 4/5 rating.

The model number will be MOTM-730 and the price will be $289 kit and $389
assembled. It will not show up on the ordering page until it's within 2 weeks of
shipping. Which is looking like June-July, possibly sooner depending on the '650
roll-out. Hard to say right now. Does use a MOTM-950 supply connection (6-pin).

b) My goal is to have the '650 production artwork/panel CAD file finished and
off to pre-pro by this coming Friday. I finished a batch of '310 uVCO kits and
3/4ths of the way through the '300s. I'm wating for parts that will arrive by
Thursday.

c) Paul H. will start shipping kits on Wednesday.

d) I'm going 'paperless' for module manuals as I run out of the current
printing. For the time being, I'm going to '1-off' each order as I ship (mostly
these will be assembled modules). Sometime in April, I will have time to make a
'Master CD' of all the manuals in PDF and just sent that out via Paul H. who has
a fancy duplicator/printer.
