hiya folks, i'm noticing that some people are buying just EOMA68-A20 CPU Cards - i need to make up a cable set, would anyone be happy to help source these from somewhere? something i'll need to add to the crowdfunding campaign, is an OTG Host Charger, like this: http://lavalink.com/products/samsung-galaxy-tab-usb-adapters-hubs-poe-hubs-… or this: :https://www.amazon.com/Micro-Cable-Power-Samsung-Player/dp/B00CXAC1ZW/ref=pd_sim_107_6?ie=UTF8&dpID=41ossTm7P2L&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&psc=1&refRID=D4B1Z21EVBHSMB74FC5G and a USB-OTG Charger of some kind: https://www.amazon.com/T-Power-Multimedia-Charging-NFC-enabled-Bluetooth/dp… and also a Micro HDMI Type D cable like this: https://www.amazon.com/Kanex-Micro-Cable-Portable-Devices/dp/B003ULNA3K i'll need to get something like QTY 50 of each, to make up a cable set. l.

Other crowdfunding rewards

Sorry to keep sending suggestions during a very busy time! ;-) I noticed that one of the Trisquel list members made a suggestion about crowdfunding rewards: https://trisquel.info/en/forum/future-libre-computing-crowd-funding-campaig… starts-now#comment-99721 Although I intend to support this campaign because I actually want the products myself, there will be people who just want to support it in its own right. I had a conversation yesterday about this, in fact, after having seen another Crowd Supply campaign add some extra rewards: https://www.crowdsupply.com/knivd/ello-2m/updates/2233 (That's an interesting campaign all by itself, by the way.) Giving people the chance to say that they like the idea, to give more than $5 - yes I see that you can give multiples of $5 - and to maybe get more than a "thank you" but less than any of the main rewards, might broaden the base of supporters. Random merchandise might not be completely compatible with the ecological objectives of the campaign, at least if not done right. Then again, people do need to wear clothes, drink beverages out of containers, and so on. ;-) Paul
