All new ooPIC32 Raptor! THE OOPIC IS BACK!

oooooh oopic fans, take a look at this.....
I Just recieved this image from Scott at Savage Innovations. What is it you may ask...? Well, it is the rendering of the brand spanking new ooPIC32 Raptor microcontroller.
Pic32, 80 MIPS, 12K Internal Ram, eeprom for data logging or storage. USB Programmable.
3.3V and 5V regulators. 40 Servo Ports. All the objects you are used to.
The SOUNDGIN is BUILT IT! (Soundgin voice and sound effects generator)
ALL NEW ooPic32 Firmware - Yes that means ooPic BASIC (VISUAL BASICish) language.
Approx 3 inch diameter - +/- .75 hole to hole / +/- 2.77 hole to hole straight across.


In case you wanted to know, that is a Dodecagon. From wiki ~ In geometry, a dodecagon is any polygon with twelve sides and twelve angles.
I am proud to say that I got to name the ooPIC32 Raptor and it was very nice of Scott to add my initials to it.... TM is for Ted Macy right? Couldn't be Trade Mark... naw that would just be wrong. ROFL!
Scott tells me to expect a public release of sometime fall 2011.
Pricing has not been mentioned in detail yet but I think it will be under 80 USD.
I am clearing my workbench right now. This is exciting!
