Highly Anticipated 32-bit "Due" due When?

I give two out of three a little mention here -

I plan on compiling and running some of the code from the rcarduino blog on the teensy over the next week just to confirm portability but nothing that I do really stretches an UNO never mind a Due or Teensy.

For stretching the hardware you should try DIY Drones, thats one area where the size of the teensy will be a major advantage.

EDIT: The main reason I am interested in the Teensy and Due is for audio where speed and 32 bits will have a big impact. The teensy looks interesting for the DSP instructions which may make software filters a possible addition to Arduino audio projects.

DuaneB:
Is that link new today ?

No.

It is for sale in the Arduino store now, link at the top of the page.

I was going to order one until I got to the last stage just before making the payment and saw that it would cost me a total of £94! I then aborted the order process.

Shipping to Aus €73.04 + €39 that's €112...fail.

And as far as I can see it's not with any local guys yet.

Starting from today different resellers will have theirs online and the shipping cost won't be an issue.
The quote comes directly from UPS so there is not much we can do about it.
we're checking with them because we seem to get different numbers all the time so there is definitely something weird going on

Yeah I've seen this before with carriers like UPS, can't you just stick it in an envelope :slight_smile:


Rob

unfortunately the postal service is not an option. too many "lost" packages with no tracking number.

Is there an updated IDE version available so we can compile sketches for the Due?

Congratulations on getting it out anyway, it must be a big day for you guys.

yes
the new IDE is linked from the product page.

You may want to edit the IDE page :slight_smile:

WARNING: This software is a beta version, so exspect bugs and..


Rob

noted. they're fixing it.. you know it's the excitement of the moment :slight_smile:

m

Yes, big day for you guys.


Rob

Anyway well done in getting it out. I think it marks a new phase in the development of the Arduino project. Looking forward to it. :slight_smile:

@Grumpy_Mike

we're going to send one to each forum moderator and top contributors, so we'll be in touch about your shipping address :slight_smile:

:smiley: Are you serious :smiley:

Best regards

yes. give us time to finish the launch :slight_smile:

Congratulations on the launch. Its good to see a hardware page, stock in the shop, and availability on a couple of online retailers, and its still only a couple of hours after the launch (which seemed to be at noon, western Europe time).

Also congratulations on the prominent warning about compatibility with 5V shields.

Congratulations! I know how much work this is....

When you have a moment, please remember set the github repository to public, and update the "source code to the Arduino software is hosted by GitHub" link. Currently the link points to the 1.0.1 IDE source.
