    Instead of handing out items for free in the hope of a detailed, useful review - allow customers to post reviews of products purchased from Newark/element-14 and reward them with discount coupon codes for future purchases.

    John, All,

     

    From a supplier stand point, I like very much this idea of  rewarding with a discount coupon for future purchases. This is something I will bring in my next discussion with the element 14 team if I see some interest from several of you.

     

    I am also very interested to get your comments regarding another idea that would go beyond the current Roadtest and the posting of the reviews as they are done today. Goal would be to provide vouchers to someone who would run a real project with the product offered.Regular sharing of his progress and sharing of his project experience with this product would trigger more and more vouchers.

     

    I think it could have a high interest for the other designers but again this is only an idea. The decision to bring it to the next step is in your hands. Just let me know.

    Hi All,

     

    To add onto Peggy's point, as an Element14 supplier, we're actively looking for enthusiastic people to develop real projects (application notes) for our products. I think this goes far and beyond what a simple review would be capable of. In spirit with road test, we would love to supply to needed tools for free given the presence of some really cool designs.

    For the Microcontroller work there's been some modules out for wifi such as the TI Wifi Module that we saw earlier in the year.

     

    I've also recently seen the ESP8266 which is a real budget module making it ideal for makers and hobbists but also a possiblity for IOT devices.
