We are in the final process of layout and looking to get the first versions 
manufactured in the next 4 weeks.
The initial run will be low volume as we are using it for developing our 
product.  If there is enough interest then we would produce in volume.
 
We have been trying to find a way to get the information out on twitter but 
as we are a startup we have a very small following.
 
If anyone fancies tweeting us or re-tweeting us we are @aSanCloud 
 
There are going to be regular updates with the progress of the board and 
some pictures when we get the boards manufactured/assembled.
