12/18/2012 - I apologize for the lack of updates for the last couple of months. We have been working and making progress and I thought we had communicated by e-mail with anyone interested in an update, but it was made clear to me today that we are evidently missing some people. In any event, I promised updates here and from now on there should be one every week or two as we make progress. Today, I have added a work items list to the top of this page to show what is left to be done and what our progress is on each item. You should be able to use that to track the project.
Our status today is that we have the hardware working, but the BriK and Jduino boards will both require a new board turn. The Java virtual machine is complete and working well. The OpenRF™ protocol is what we are working on diligently now. It is the item that has delayed our delivery: that and the increased project work load we have had over the last couple of months.
9/9/2012 - Good news today! We got our first run of PCB for the BriK and Jduino last Friday and built a couple up today. I am still not done testing everything out, so there is a lot of work left to do. Also, I got a lot done on the cross platform IDE; I should have the code updates up later today. I think we are on track to ship in late October or early November; all without Kickstarter. Thanks again to all of those who are supporting this project. Remember that you can pre-purchase boards and kits on our website to help us get this to the finish line.
9/2/2012 - Well, as you probably already know, we failed to make our funding goal on Kickstarter. No big deal though because we are going to continue the project anyways. In fact, we just ordered the first round of printed circuit boards for the BriK™ and JDuino™ boards. They should come in next week and we will start working with them. How fast this proceeds will depend on how much financial support we get. If you are interested in supporting the project, you can still do so by pre-purchasing boards and kits. We have a kit for every reward level available on our website at www.d6labs.com. Keep checking back to see how we are doing and feel free to ask questions via the discussion tab above. For those of you that have already pre-purchased, thank you.
8/27/2012 - I have established this page to be the primary location of updates in the event that the KickStarter project doesn't meet its funding goals. The project will continue and we will be pre-selling boards and kits in packages equivalent to each reward level on our website if KickStarter does not work out. - SJM
