Re: Carte Blanche update





Not really - the inital effort, and more so the risk that comes with
the set up and establishing the board for production is huge. I dont
have financial backing to push through like big companies do when
things go wrong (pick and place programming, MOQ's, extra charge for
hand assembling through hole, extra charges for SMD, stencils, NRE,
extra charge for plated edges, panel size wont fit p'n'p, shipping,
Dragon Boat Festival!) So to make sure its either a good experience or
no experience, I personally would only rather sell when I have a known
good card in front of me that will do the job.  Refunding if something
went wrong? Oh, no way - that would toast me. At $200 bux each, it
appears expensive. But due to NRE (Non Recurring Engineering) charges,
thats just about  what it costs to make.
