Greg,

<div class="">Thanks for the feedback. I’ve added a note regarding
the antennas.</div>

<div class="">Sorry I wasn’t clear; Developers can also get the
US$20 discount pricing on this.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class="">Longer term, I’d like to be able to do more for
developers, but getting to where we are now has cost most of
what the project had available.</div>

good. You might want to note that <i class="">antennas</i>
for the modem's 3G & GPS ports are not included with
the modem board. Some cars provide GPS, and don't
require it from the modem.<br class="">
<br class="">
You said there would be special pricing for developers?
Just curious. I don't mind paying full price, since the
initial prototype was provided free.<br class="">
