Not to start design or > production (that has become my hobby), but to buy components. I don't get this passage. Note I am not a hardware expert so it is not clear to me how 200 boards can be available in november if a redesign with a new display takes nearly half a year. Where are 130+ displays supposed to materialze until november? I understand your assumption that there is some stock somewhere and would love to see that proven with a reliable price tag.
