I don't think anyone attacks you, but there is a general grumble about the state of roll-out-slippage. ie ES devices really do sound like candidates for Webstore ? When a demo-PCB is as close as next month, then posting info on what's comming, will be generally appreciated. Everyone here can understand the PCB mfg cycles - often the paperwork approval takes longer : so posting a price, avail in XX weeks, helps everyone. -jg

It certainly doesn't work here, even if I prepend a www.xilinx.com, or put that in place of "web".

I'm looking forward to see what I can play with. For the moment I'm most interested in what the expansion connectors will be (manufacturer & pinout, approximate at least). My biggest hope is that it will be ..../spartan3eboard/index.html.
