Merry Christmas Nathan and everyone else at Spark Fun! Thanks for bringing hobbiests such great (and needed!) parts, support/articles, and PCBs for another year!
Hey! Thanks!
We are about to turn 3! (January 3rd). It’s been awsome seeing how fast we are growing. Very painful, but somehow we keep a lid on the chaos.
As long as you guys keep coming up with stuff for us to sell We’ll keep selling it!
Big plans in the works. Just to give you an update (that you didn’t really ask for):
SFE is now moved into its’ happy home at 2500 Central Ave.
We have 10 employees currently but about half are part time. Students are the best workers! They just aren’t around when you need them…
We are starting to get into more and more consulting work.
We are starting to do custom enclosures.
In2 is cooking hot. We hope to have a new In2 rev out in a few months.
RF, GPS, and Triziums are all on the list of new dev boards that Pete is working on.
The new website has absorbed most of my time. Re-writing the MS-Access Order DB to interface through an ODBC connection to an osCommerce backend to spit out lables using the FedEx printing API, blah, blah, blah.
Oh, we’ve got Color LCDs and cheaper parts all around. Need to get to those…
Happy everything everybody. Party hard this new-years weekend!
