Hey everyone, quick little update.
The shipments for everyone on the form seem to have arrived and the majority of the feedback I got was positive.
I do have a few boards left over, so if anyone would like one, please do send me a DM. I unfortunately have to exclude the US from the shipping locations for this. I do hope to get an easier way to ship to the US in the future for new revisions of the board though.
All out now.
As for the newer revisions, I am still unsure if there is even a need for a redriver as even 100cm cables do work fine for some people, but I will most likely do it anyways to just play around with it.
I am also thinking of switching to 2x 4i connectors instead of a single big 8i connector. Mostly because 4i cables are much easier to come by than Y-cables to split 8i to 2x 4i, and the dev kit should be the ideal 8i solution anyways.
