Just wanted to let you know that you have inspired me to start teaching my son electronics. I have been a programmer for 17 years and have a background in electronics. It has been a long time and I am trying to teach myself what all I have forgotten. I have watched the show for some time and after showing my son the video of the Auto sun glasses and the xbox laptop he was intrigued. After going and buying an arduino and explaining the basics, we built a few simple examples. He is now hooked and we are now attempting our first hack. We are going to attemp wiring an old Flip Video camera to a Motion Sensor. I just wanted to thank you for inspiring us and helping us find a hobby we can enjoy together.
He was so excited he wanted to start a YouTube channel so he we could put the video's out and all his friends could watch! You can Check out our first 2 videos @ https://www.youtube.com/user/FatherSonTechFun/
Thanks and Keep up the good work!
John and Lane
btw, Know where I can get a schematic for the Flip Video? Do you think Cisco would give us that?
