You have 11.5 months until the end of January. :-) Sounds like you have some customers chomping at the bit, and they don't care about the untested part. So it comes down to a couple of things. 1) The cost per board vs size of production run. If you get a firm sales commitment you could do a small production run soon, sell them with a disclaimer about the untested TV chip. Then when the board is completely tested do a 2nd larger production run. I assume that two smaller production runs will cost more than one big run, but I have no idea how much more. 2) The cost and hassle of supporting an extra rev of the board, if a rev B is required. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
