itead did a nice job. elecfreaks decided that washing boards is optional
<whitequark>
and so is retaining the antiscratch film on the LCD
<whitequark>
and so is not scratching / not smearing LCD
<whitequark>
and they glued it with a kind of polyethylene adhesive which just fell off both from LCD and PCB
<whitequark>
complete with ink of the QA mark.
<whitequark>
sigh.

smart electronics - the QA mark self-destructs if the quality can no longer be assured
<whitequark>
also, say hello to a DFU bootloader misadvertising its version
<whitequark>
which was a screwup of a vendor whose board my vendor has cloned, and it was fixed in upstream, but who cares about such unimportant subtleties
<larsc>
you care ;)
<wpwrak>
whitequark: that was a trap to punish those cloners :)
<whitequark>
oooh crap
<whitequark>
the lcd backlight driver produces that peculiar sound
<whitequark>
and the polyethylene blob is visible right in the center of the display
<whitequark>
what a waste of money
<whitequark>
$30!
<whitequark>
fortunately the company bought it for me

larsc: it could broadcast a call sign
<wpwrak>
well, you could use it to produce some AM noise :)
<kristianpaul>
yay ;-)

wpwrak: and FM?

hmm no, the highest frequency you can sometimes produce is 84 MHz (excluding harmonics). according to wikipedia, FM radio normally begins at 87.5 MHz.
<wpwrak>
you could try to use harmonics, of which you should have a lot, given that it's a square wave, but that's a bit ugly.

hates it when an ethernet switch fails causing me to think the (headless) pc connected to it is the one that went down ...
