Since I ran out of P112 kits last year, I've been asked multiple times to
produce more. The critical thing in doing this is financing the project.
So, I've set up a Kickstarter.com project to get things going. There are
some differences in the kits this time round. The big one is that I'm no
longer offering complete kits. Sorting thousands of tiny parts into
ziplock bags was a big hassle. Instead the kit will contain a PCB with
surface-mount parts soldered on, a boot ROM, serial port pigtails, and two
CDs of documentation and software. I have prepared a shared project on
Mouser for most of the remaining parts. The serial chips are obtained
from Digikey. This way you can just de-select what you
already have, or
order something different -- like if you want machined sockets
instead of
dual-wipes.
Go to http://661.org/p112 to read about the P112 and find the link to
Kickstarter.
