Pretty neat idea, indeed. But I now already have ordered those tremendously expensive 22µF caps so I will use them no matter what ;) But probably others would like to go this approach, especially on GTA01 where this cap seems to be glued to the PCB and thus hard to remove. > Dima Cheers nils faerber -- kernel concepts GbR Tel: +49-271-771091-12 Sieghuetter Hauptweg 48 Fax: +49-271-771091-19 D-57072 Siegen Mob: +49-176-21024535 http://www.kernelconcepts.de _______________________________________________ hardware mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/hardware
