Have you seen the start page?  image.jpg   31.65KB   62 downloads Looks like something new is coming... Can any of you decipher the hieroglyphs?

Only time will tell I imagine

Chris was in the chat room a few weeks ago and hinted that something new was coming.

 

Would be good to see the promised ethernet and SD modules for the GO! shipping.  We've been waiting for a while for these to be ready.

Would be happy to see a DIP-40 with an STM32F processor.

[hanzibal]

I'll second that but suspect otherwise since the majority of users seem to prefer boards like the NP2 On the other hand, I get the feeling that the Go! has not been a big enough sucess to justify going further down that lane but then again, nor seems the Cerb40 from GHI. However, there is now a big gap between the mini and the N2 so I wouldn't be all that surprised if my prayers have been heard after all :-) I'd really love to see a mini on steroids!

Too much suspense...

different image today, don't know about the top line, but 1332AD9 is 20130521 when converted from hex to decimal.... Coincidence that that's the same day ms is unveiling new Xbox.... Hmmmmmm Nak.

[hanzibal]

About the jibberish, could it be uuencoded perhaps? Judging from Stefan's absence, it could be big... ...or hopefully tiny - keeping my fingers crossed for a killer mini ;-)

That would be NICE!

[pdii]

Any guesses as to what this is?

 

gpUgUL73tGE 1332AD9

 

I'm hoping it is the release of the Go Ethernet Module!

The Go! Ethernet module may be long sought after but personally, I doubt SecretLabs would make such a big deal out of that.

[hanzibal]

Code cracked!

 

Very peculiar thing - If you click the link to the video that Chris referred to in his post entitled Time machine, you'll recognize the cryptic code as being part of the URL:

 

gpUgUL73tGE

 

Hardly a coincidence so obviously, SecretLabs intended for us to find the video but....the question is why?

 

This is a real long shot, but could be we're looking at something based on a FPGA/CPLD-like core that lets you program the hardware as to which internal function (PWM, analogue, digital, etc) goes to which pin. A sort of dynamic ASIC if you like.

[nakchak]

Rtc module/shield maybe?

[hanzibal]

In my opinion, that wouldn't be big enough...I'm thinking something a bit more groundbreaking.

[hanzibal]

Oh, and here's the lyrics for "Time is of essence" by Cold Mailman as played in the video but it doesn't seem to contain any clues...

 

building a time machine

is easy when you are alone

but sad as it may have been

it got you a dinosaur bone

 

I'm lee ranaldo and i'm thurston moore

I am the stranger that lurks at you door

and I guarantee that wherever we go

I've been there before

 

touring the riot scene

to see just how far you've been thrown

but as long as your grass is green

it may just turn you into stone

 

I'm lee ranaldo and I'm thurston moore

I am the stranger that lurks at you door

and I guarantee that wherever we go

I've been there before

 

play

hide and seek

kill the freak

with a tear on your cheek

and a smile on your face

fall from grace

into place

spending your days

longing to play...

 

To me, the video would also suggest something with an LCD on it. Maybe built in LCD support?

[pdii]

Rtc module/shield maybe?

 

A re release of all/some boards with RTC included? a new mini, n2, np2 and/or go?  I thought I saw a post recently that might corroborate this.  I'll see if I can dig it up later today.

[iced98lx]

I would purchase a new N+3 with say, a boost in ram and a RTC, regardless of the footprint.

[Christoc]

Is it tomorrow yet?

[Christoc]

I think it would be cool if it was a camera setup for the Go. Something that lets you keep a video history of something. Sort of like having access to a time machine

[hanzibal]

I really think its something much bigger than an add-on of any kind. I also don't believe its an NP2 with more muscle. I'm thinking of something groundbreaking using some cool new rocket science tech.
