Hi
I hope you don’t mind me being nosy but I saw that you managed to sell the boards and also that most were not more than a couple of weeks old.
I just did a quick count of the (evaluation/demo) boards that I have lying around in the office and totaled approximately 40. This includes 3 x Olimex LPC1766-STKs. Since they always seem to come in handy (eg. I use the 3 x LPC17X boards for some testing of other boards since it has very low power RTC, its LCD and SD-card for logging events, explaining why there happen to be 3 of them there) I don’t think that I’d part with any of them, especially not after such a short time.
Are you quitting development and taking up another hobby or profession?
Just being nosy… (also more of a lighthearted question 
Regards

I’ve probably got just as many, plus innumerable boards I designed myself for various chips.
The NGX BlueBoard-LPC1768-H is a nice little board, I’m thinking of making a prototyping board that plugs onto it.
Long ago, when i first started out working with processors, i first learned assembler and loved it. I loved the fact of knowing what every clock tick did and being so close to the processor. Did that for years, then a buddy said i really should look into C. So i did. when i learned that one line of C could easily replaced 20-30 lines of assembler i said pha to assembler and quickly went to C. So i have been in C for many many more years. Then one day i was bored and tried an RTOS. That was it for me, i was hooked. I love the fact that you can make many things run all at the same time rather than to play tricks in the IRQ while say in a while loop waiting on an event. An RTOS easily gets around all that much more easily.
OK, i said all that to give you a background for what i am going to say. I sat back and thought about all the things i need without paying an arm and a leg for them.
I need at >= 256k flash, >=80k ram, >=80 mhz for the uP.
I also need and RTOS & TCP/IP stack.
When i look at all my kits, i need to buy and RTOS, and a TCP/IP stack. I asid to myself it would be better for me to just buy a module that already gives me all these things and stop buying kits and trying to yam all these thing together. I want something that comes this way out of the box with the kinks already worked out. So what gives me all this?
Netburner is the best, but a bit pricey at $80 per module.
Rabbit, i have tried their RCM5700 and like the size and love the cost.
Tibbo, like the EM1000, but not fast enough for me.
Zilog, Ez80F91 Mini Module, like the price, but again not fast enough.
Now Rabbit is supposedly coming out with a new RCMxxxx module is Q2 in the same size as the RCM5700 but its going to be 200MHZ!!!
With rabbit i get the free compiler, RTOS (though a bit weird style of one) and a TCP/IP stack which is all designed to work together for the processor. So this is what i am holding out for. I am say by,by to all my kits and just going with netburner and rabbit for now. For my small projects i will use the Atmel AtXmega as i love them.
SO… that all it in a nut shell.
Did you consider using Free RTOS as it’s ported to most microprocessors?
(Assuming you need an RTOS.)
Yes, i have tried it, along with a few others. I have no complaints about Free RTOS. I do need an RTOS. after having used one for so long, i cringe just thinking about doing a project without one.
