VecVox interest ?

Hi, I need to have a rough idea how many people will be wanting a VecVox, so
I can order some parts in bulk.


I did a rough cost breakdown last night -

SpeakJet chip - $24.99
PCB (small run) - $5 approx
PIC ucontroller - $3 approx
Misc components (amp, sockets, etc) - $9 approx
Sega cable - $1 approx

So, you'll be looking at approx $50 (shipped) for the fully built PCB
module and a Sega extension cable, all ready to just plug into the Vec and a
speaker / headphones.

I'll take one. I also want to buy a VecFlash - any news on when you'll be
resuming production of that?
