I think you're jealous PG and I drank the Kool Aid and lived to tell about it.

Did you get to see the infamous FCC test report of the Jalapeno from last November?

Since there was no physical Jalapeno in November that could be tested... nope, didn't see a November report on it.

Sure there was. Josh said they sent it to the test lab and was just waiting on the report.

When is the Jalapeno getting FCC approval?

Maybe two weeks? We are waiting for the test lab to issue the test report.

We are doing all the devices at once, since they all share the same board.
Probably because all that could be tested without chips WAS the board.

That's fine, with or without chips. Where is the test report?

I didn't ask to see one... Maybe PG did, you'll have to take it up with him.

Ok, did you see their 400+ units shipped per day?

I already stated elsewhere that when I got there around Noon I saw the Fed Ex truck pull up and when I walked back and looked he was loading packages(wasn't going to crawl into the truck and count).  I also already stated that Josh told us that USPS, UPS, DHL and Fed Ex normally pick up in the morning and when we got to the shipping area there wasn't the 4 day stack of packages PL thought they'd roll out for the 'dog and pony show'.  They did have 3 burn-in areas and a 4th was under construction.  It was very neat to see the over-sized semi-trailer they use for one of the burn-in areas... Josh mentioned it used to be a military command and control bunker complete with generator and HVAC.  I didn't get a chance to count, but they had quite a bit burning in that I could see.

Ok, well surely you saw a team working on the Monarch. What did that look like? With the tape-out in Aug '13 they must have some cool stuff going on.

I honestly don't remember much being said about the Monarch... Having spent 20 years in electronics, I was more interested in the assembly area.  If Josh had let me, I'd have sat down and started building one :)

How about a new thread guys?

Let's try to keep this on track.  We know BFL doesn't have shit to deliver and that's why this thread was created.
