Neat stuff. It looks like something I'd buy, but it's all student
designed, even the lexan case.

I just want to point out that there is no available documentation for  
the powervr chips. There is only a driver blob for linux.

However a register specification of that chip, if available to anyone  
would be highly appreciated *hint* *hint*

Best regards,
André

They have what looks to be a decent production process... I wonder if
they'd be willing to go big time and sell these things? I didn't see
any sign of that on the website, though
(http://beaversource.oregonstate.edu/projects/cspfl). I know my
university loves student-founded companies and even gives them office
space & a little capital to start out; wonder if OSU would spin this
out into something similar.

I asked them. "Everyone asks us that". They're not sure.

The zigby is an issue, they did it because the 802.11 chips are really
closed due to FCC fear of unlicensed spectrum use.
