The first 10,000 have arrived in the UK but are now being held up as RS
and Farnell are demanding a formal CE test, rather than the usual self
certification.
This might be a problem, as they are uncased and are bound to produce EMI.
In the USA the FCC allow manufacturers to bypass this by labelling:
"This product may cause interference".
I wonder how mobile phones get around this - we have all heard the
interference they cause!
The QL black box was absolutely awful, both for interference, and also
susceptibility to interference. That directly spawned my "Computer
Cleaner".

According to the RS web site, the requirement for a CE is owing to the
board not now being classified as a 'prototype'. Owing to the large
number in production.
