What the port face looks like. We've got USB-A for 5V power out, and a mini USB for control. 12V can be drawn from either a PCIe 6-pin jack or a 2.1/5.5mm barrel jack (for running off a brick). The blue knob is used to adjust core voltage from about 0.63 to 0.80V chip-level, basically the same range as the 2Pac. It can be assembled with a vertical (pictured) or right-angle (front-facing) adjuster.
Wow! nice to see you got things to this point. I would think that case designers would prefer the right-angle adjuster.

These will be fun to play with.
Will Laura be making a bitcointalk appearance? Would be nice to see an official gekkoscience agent/id/rep listed.

I would guess that's up to her. A forum presence would probably make some things easier.

I would advise folks who are interested to email Laura (at gekkoscience dot com) so we can get a bead on market demand. Only gonna have so many of these at the start and I want to know how to divide them up.
Emailed. Thanks for the heads up.

This is totally off topic - but why did you name your company gekkoscience? I'm thinking you had the idea during on the beach in Hawaii sipping a tropical drink when a gecko fell on your head... Sort of like Isaac Newton and the apple...

Nope, not at all. I'm way too cheap for Hawaii even if I didn't hate the beach.
Also please note - right now we are just getting an idea of interest. Nothing will be sold. Do not make payments because then I'll refund them and it's annoying.
(there are, however, a few stock 2Pacs available and that'll be a continuing policy so you may not have to buy from resellers only)

Do you literally mean laura@gekkoscience.com? Website only mentions novak & kitten@gekkoscience.com in the "Contact Info". Forgive me, but 12+ years of memorizing military regulations makes me over-think things at times... I look forward to putting in an order.

For reference in how out-of-date the website is, Novak packed up and left two years ago.

Would a reply be given to the email or it is just to get an estimate on the demand ?

Why not both?
I didn't answer the question because, if you send an email, the question should answer itself.
