Lol!! i remember that clip, too bad it wont play for me right now, that was the funniest part of that movie Utoob is too busy it seems.
i'll try again later

Stupid question: you didn't leave a reset pin floating somewhere and all the grounds are connected, right?

Lol, well i have been known be distracted enough for that sort of thing to slip by me, but not it a long time, and not in this case.
Its probably related to the fact that the USB IC is set up as self-powered from the USB cable, while the rest of the board has its own separate 5V supply. they're interconnected by a 500mA PTC, but i didn't have it mounted before, for PSU testing purposes. Problem seems to have gone away since i installed it.

Sorry, had to ask
It's always something stupid like that, at least in my case

Looking for shipping status update on the orduino and build plate?

[canadianavenger]

I'm still waiting for an answer on the watchdog

[orcinus]

No watchdog for you! Come back, one year!

[aleith]

that is not making me feel warm and fuzzy Are you implying Frantz has absconded with my money to the strip clubs on Catherine St.

[frob]

.. So hopefully here midweek, so starting to ship those out by before the end of next week.
ORDuino's should follow very quickly after that.
