Seems to me the real problem now is lack of incentive to get it working. Most of the people experienced with the design and so downhearted they've downed tools. I think the design is likely to be working in a week or so. I feel for those chips have been delivered for a few weeks now but they have no working design.
Agreed. That's and the 'who knows when we'll get our chips' timeline are why I finally decided to refund, but will keep my ears to the ground on future endeavors. Everyone's heart was in the right place and I want to encourage that spirit next time again
