There's always the chance that we got most things right :) Since this is an all-new process, I think it's impossible to predict our real chance of success, and it's even harder to say how much can be salvaged later by rework. So I'd say we should prepare for the worst but hope for the best. > I'm not confident we'll get orders for 20 boards though. I have no idea, really. I'll want two for myself.

Ah yes, I think we should leave at least two boards unallocated, because that's the least number we can expect to go horribly wrong. With that I mean components 1 mm off-center, rotated by 90 degrees, and such. We can toss them into the lottery as a freebie without value :) So, with those first two who'll take one for the team, we're down to 16 left. Hey, they're going fast ! ;-) - Werner _______________________________________________ gta02-core mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/gta02-core
