If I can come up with a way to sell 100 TStik based OutPosts, would you be in a
position to re-design your enclosure to do the following:
1) Accomodate JSIMM cards.
2) Allow for the addition of extra I/O connectors to accommodate any extra I/O
circuits that might be added to the JSIMM slot or to the 'Embedlets' expansion
slot?
It is my thought that if the case height is raised to accommodate the JSIMM
cards, then perhaps a rectangular opening could be added to the upper part of
either end plate which could be filled with a family of metal plates which
contained the standard I/O connector punch outs.
This kind of strategy seems like it has worked out well with PC expansion slot
cover plates.
In fact, maybe we could even use actual PC expansion slot cover plates? The
plates are very cheap and a wide variety of pre-punched I/O connector opening
styles are already available.
