Testers will be selected on the basis of quality of applications: we expect a full and complete description of why you want to test these particular products.
Testers are required to produce a full, comprehensive and well thought out review within 2 months of receipt of the products.
Failure to provide this review within the above timescale will result in the enrolee being excluded from future Road Tests.
I'm hoping they upgrade the version of CCS with this, V5 is a little out of date I think (they are at V6 now), Would also be nice if they threw in a BoosterPack specifically for the C2000 like the
C2000 LED BoosterPack, BOOSTXL-DRV8301 Motor Drive BoosterPack or the BOOST-DRV8711 Stepper Motor BoosterPack. Here hoping this is what the delay is all about
I have already received my CC3x00 road test and I am now wondering if the LPRS eRIC Development Kitroad test will also arrive before this one... only time will tell. at least I have road tests to keep me busy
This is the first time that the ahipment got delayed like hell crazzyy. And then there are people actually waiting for our reviews.
I guess feom now on for each road test i get selected i will comment the date when i recieves the kit.
The most funny part is I actually read the documentation and now have also forgot what i had read. Anyways i am getting a INTEL Galileo as a part of MS IoT Initiative will enjoy with that kit for a while. I will get the kit tomorrow will do a blog on it meanwhile
gsgill112 I understand the shipping potential shipping delay but I got my CC3100/CC3200 kit a while ago and that road test closed after this one, this is why I am confused. Anyways I will use this delay to spend more time with the CC3x00 kits.
@Christian_Defeo are there any updates on this road test, its been a month since the reviewers were selected but I have not heard anything or seen anything regarding the kit.
