mid-week Update

Ok, boys and girls, it's time to finally ship the MOTM-485!

The first 30 kits will ship from me while Paul H. is goofing off in Canada on 
his "vacation". Which of course means none of the kits he has will ship until he 
returns around Aug 10th.

Meanwhile, the 2 of us have looked ahead and have placed parts orders for all 
the kits so that they will be in stock, enough to last until December. So, we 
should be able to hold < 1 week ship time for the rest of the year.

The '485 kit has a CDROM, it's still very much a 'work-in-progress' (the CDROM). 
Later in the year, much content will be added, I'm going to re-edit all the 
manuals to clarify things like via holes, and add some color pictures and audio 
files. Those with the current CDROM can sell it as 'vintage' on eBay.

I have '300 kits in stock, but the '310s are waiting for the tempco resistors. 
KRL Bantry is falling behind in orders (they laid off too many folks last year, 
paying for it this year) but the order is arriving Friday and I turned right 
around and bought 150 more.

I will have these 30 all shipped by Wednesday of next week. Then attention turns 
to assembled backlog (#1 priority) and getting the MOTM-650 and MOTM-730 shipped 
(digital goodness!). I am also finishing up schematic capture of the MOTM-810 VC 
ADSR, and waiting to get my "design package" for the MOTM-460 MuTron Bi-Phase 
clone.
