Beta test for Wayne and Layne


A little birdie told me that W&L’s next kit has at least one mind-blowing hack on it. So mind-blowing that the guys want you to play around with it before they send off a kazillion PCBs to be printed.

Free hardware!

We’re looking at producing some of our upcoming kits in vast vast numbers (for us), and to reduce our risk, we want to get the hardware in a bunch of people’s hands to see what they think.

We hope to send out some hardware to folks within a few weeks, have them build our kit, play with it for a little bit, and then have them give us some feedback.

The kits are blinky and awesome, and should take less than an hour to assemble and less than half an hour to play with.

To do so, we made a little form for folks to apply. Don’t feel intimidated by the questions–we’re looking for a wide batch of folks, not just the ones with the most experience.

We’re looking to make our decisions soon, so don’t delay! The form shouldn’t take more than a few minutes to fill out.
