I've enjoyed getting into the hobby of building or modifying robots using the EZ-B. One thing I've learned over the years with various telephone companies now that I'm a retired Bell Labs Sr. Engineer and wish to pass along to my peers here at the EZ-Robot community is the need for duplex services. I run dual routers using two different internet providers with two different web sites, I have a 20KW generator just in case the AC power fails, and now I am the proud owner of TWO EZ-Boards along with two WiFi boards. My odds of total failure have diminished due to backup processes being in place.

"So we now created a fourth deadline... This deadline is merely abstract" Nice, and well said, deadlines are very 20th century. The real makers just get the work done as they can, reality permitting. With superior project management software you never need to set a deadlines all are informed and and understand the process as it unfolds. If the entire process and its variants can not be quantified then an accurate deadline can never be set. For some deadlines make them feel in control yet others know deadlines were made for missing! Looking forward to what you can dream up, just don't get lost in the red/black ink leave that to the suits...
