- I noticed the beam-trading post is still up and lots of people are asking/selling things over the mailing list. Why not post things on the trading post? Thats what it's there for :)

- Solarbotics (finally) got around to updating their pages and it was well worth it. The new pages are very user freindly, look much better then the old ones and they have a ton of new and very useful products. Go check it out.

- Sparky and Bruce came up with a reversing cricket sound for your walker today and i've posted the schematic here. Here's a quote from Sparky:

"What we came up with was to come up with a pause between a SET of beeps (if that makes any sense) what resulted was a very realistic(and family annoying) cricket-like sound.

- It seems that the beam trading post is now down. I'm not sure if this is a temporary thing or not but there hasn't been any activity on it for quite some time.

- I have also noticed a lot of people are looking for BG Motors. So if you have any, you might want to post a message to the beam mailing list stating so and who knows what you could trade for them :)

- Just a note, seeing as how theres a lack of news. I am only updating my news section now. I haven't started to update the rest of the pages also because that requires a lot more time.

- Considering there is no news as of this update for today, I thought I'de just ask a general question. Didn't Solarbotics promise that when they got back from ther're annual shutdown they would upload new webpages with new products and new prices? Well it's been quite a while since they got back and I have yet to see anything like that. Oh well.

Local News - I'm back!
- Hey there. I'm back! I say today that Chui decided to stop updating news every day and I felt that it was time for me to start. Things are back together now and I think I have the time. Although school is a pain i still was a lot more busy in the summer with my sleeping from 3am-5pm and parties and everything. So from now on expect updates a bit more frequently then once a month :)
