I'm a bit confused here. Are these going to be offered as assembled
modules using analogue SMT?
While I do not like that kits are being discontinued, it's way better
than going out of business. What I don't understand, if the modules
that were previously available as kits that are going to continue to
be available assembled use their original through-hole designs, then
aren't the parts that Synthesis Technology would need to buy, and the
cost of those parts, the same as before?
Also, the "Future Modules" link doesn't seem to be working.
