Mr. Twomey,

I am interested in getting an Easy Prop, and am trying to figure out where to order it from; the links that I used "www.achatz.nl", "www.achatz.nl/catalog" don't work for me. Do you have another link, or e-mail address that I might contact him through. My e-mail is (email removed to avoid spam)

regards,

Jerry,
We are on first name terms here --- it's 'John'
Franz ia a member here but since a server reload he has to re register - I will pass on your details to him and he will be in contact with you shortly - I have to say it is a great choice and a comprehensive tool ..

Just as a precaution - can you edit your post to remove your email address - as it may leave you open to spam .. I have it now and will forward it onto Franz immediately...

EDIT:
Jerry I edited your post to remove your email address - to avoid announcing it to spammers...

Hello freaks,

i am thinking about pushing my easyPROP Zigbee option a bit. Planning to make a small PCB which fits a XBEE module
and offering lots of features at this very small board. Like a temp-chip + digital inputs + digital outputs + LEDs + etc....
It should be possible building a small or hugh wireless sensor network with that. If there are any ideas and inputs then please let me know !!!

have fun
Franz
