A quick word on the BOM
Things are looking very good. After lots of running around it seems that we have found sources for everything with enough parts in stock (much harder than I had hoped...). We are very close to being able to post the final BOM so folks can see what the money goes for. I think you'll like it.
The good news is that we are still confident in the 65$ price tag for a pair (+ shipping). I am working through the details on the shipping charge. Foreign countries we'll do on a 1-1 basis as there are too many vagaries. It will need to be a tracked form of delivery as a way of helping to protect both parties in the deal.
So we are definitely very close to pulling the trigger, i.e., taking money via paypal. Basically I won't actually place the big parts order until I know that we have actual orders (as in: money has been sent) for the 100+ kits (50+ pairs). The $ amounts are kind of big and we don't want to be stuck with lots of inventory (the goal is to cover our financial behinds and not start a business).

From my experience with RevC kits, this should not be a problem. It's already looking like you will have more takers then kits.
email problem
Since I have made only a few posts, I am under moderation and am not allowed to email you. This will also make it difficult to send money via paypal which also requires an email address.
Can you provide an email address somehow - like maybe emailing me.
Thanks,
Blair

Since you have made 5 posts you should be out of moderation. A hint is that you enable your email button, much easier to get in contact with you. Your email address won't get revealed by this.
Yes Blair. Enable your email button and I will email you so that you can respond to me. OR just email me 🙂
I just came across this thread and missed the deadline. If someone decides they do not want their kits, please private message me. I am interested in adopting your project.
Blair, I tried to email you through your information page on DIY. IT says you are not taking emails. Please click my email button and shoot me an email. It will work for you.

Still Trying
Thanks for your help --- I still get this message when I try to email you:
Sorry but you cannot currently send emails to other members because your account is under moderation. If you are a new user, you will gain full member status after you have made a few posts.
I did enable the private message option, and the option that allows administrators and moderators to send me email notices. So I'm hoping it works and looking forward to getting a new project. Thanks for putting it together.

shipping
uriah,
do you know how much is the estimated shipping costs to Singapore?
I may want to use my address in USA if the shipping costs direct to Singapore is too high.

I really dont know how much shipping is to Singapore. I guarantee its less to ship to the US 🙂
I expect shipping to other countries to cost between 20 and 30 dollars. Shipping in the US less than 10.

This is not holding anything up for those of you who have responded.
BTW on Saturday I sent one of my prototypes boards to Peter. He would like to try to populate it with what we believe to be the final BOM. That way we will have two guys independently populate the board looking for fit and errors.

GLT,
you are right its a good read. Thanks for the links.
I would like to add that reading that makes me feel really good about the BOM we are putting together. It follows quite nicely.
