Hello. I am trying to get a makershield-kit in Germany (as I don't want to pay 40$ extra and don't want to wait two weeks) but it is really hard to find a place where one can buy it. Does anyone know an adress where this is possible? I checked all the places I know and read about here in this forum but... - no luck so far.
Or is this component probably out-dated? Is it still to good use? Is there something else which has the same functionality?
And if it is not possible to get one - is it possible to follow the book and to complete (!) the examples without the makershield-kit?
Sorry if some of the questions may sound a little bit strange - it's all totally new to me and the book has not arrived yet!
Cheers and thanks,
Tim.
