And a last, quick update before the boards will go offline...

Nikolaus worked hard and tried to get me a fully working prototype set before christmas - he's so close, but time ran out.

He had a little fight with random crashes while booting which took a while to figure out, but it seems he found the culprit now. Getting the power circuit to work properly (where hardware and software have to work together) is quite a bit of work :)

He also coded the driver for the RGB LEDs and the keyboard backlight and those LEDs are working fine as well.

Nikolaus will go into some well-deserved holiday now (he nearly worked 24/7 for the last week... okay, that's a bit of an exaggeration, but he worked a lot!) and will be back early January.

We will have to wait until then before we have more results, but as it looks like, we should have working prototype PCBs in time for the case, so I'm positive that we can build a full unit soon :)

Anyways, thanks a LOT to all of you for your support :) Without you, something like the Pyra and Pandora wouldn't have been possible!

It's really great knowing to have such an awesome community behind your back!

So... have some really relaxing holidays with your family. All the best wishes from me!

Don't forget: The boards will go offline in about 12 hours for the migration into the new forum system and website which will hopefully go smoothly.

See you on the new boards!

Thanks again from the whole team!
