Seeking Feedback -- Would You Be interested in Roadtesting a Bluetooth®︎5-capable Dev Board?

I am planning on running a roadtest on the following rapid development board for battery-optimized Bluetooth® 5 solutions with the MAX32666 Arm® Cortex®-M4 processor with FPU. The board also has a 6-axis accelerometer/gyro, RGB indicator LED, and pushbutton.

If you have the time, I'd appreciate you voting in the poll below. It helps me gauge interest and the number of kits needed.

Here is some documentation on the board:

Not intending to sound disrespectful or demeaning, but this is board is kinda interesting due to small size and battery optimization, but otherwise just seems another CPU packaged with a couple sensors and LEDs.

I think such tests are more a review of the eco-system (compiler, IDE, libraries) than of the board itself. There might be one outstanding criteria (e.g. really low power, high performance, many GPIOs, or whatever), but I would expect these to be highlighted specifically.

I will candidly admit, we ask ourselves this a lot and it has been a challenge for the past ten or so years.

"This is a processor with some connectivity, what difference is it to... this other one?"

Perhaps that's part of the roadtest.

Though, frankly I've just seen this has an accelerometer/gyro on it. That always catches my interest.
