Recent discussion of the SBC6120 and the IOB6120 reminded me that I've been wanting an IOB6120, so I spent a little time looking into having boards fabbed. I talked to Jim Kearney, who said he has no objections.

Discussion of the above issues (or others)? How many would buy IOB6120 boards (I'll try to keep score)?

Recent discussion of the SBC6120 and the IOB6120 reminded me that I've been wanting an IOB6120, so I spent a little time looking into having boards fabbed. I talked to Jim Kearney, who said he has no objections. It looks like 25 pre-sold boards at $28 is a workable price. Though less likely, 50 boards pre-sold would be make it $16. Issues: I'm not currently able to front the cost, so it would have to be a pre-pay deal. I'm willing to do the footwork to order boards, but I'm not ready to tackle kitting full parts sets. J.C. Wren said he believes that at one point there may have been issues sourcing flash chips. If original or compatible parts are no longer available, then there's no point. It'll take me approximately a dozen round-tuits to check all of these. Perhaps someone else is intimately familiar with the parts and could do it, or we could split them up among a group and each check a handful? According to Jim, this board is a non-trivial build. I think I can probably pull it off, but I'm not about to start building 25 of them for others. This may limit the number of folks interested in buying. So: Discussion of the above issues (or others)? How many would buy IOB6120 boards (I'll try to keep score)?
