: ) Touchy subject that one as you can see

How's about you simply provide free serial cables for the device to interested devs.. It does require a certain level of debugging that is a PITA.

They are not expensive I shouldn't imagine.

Someone (who shall remain nameless) has very kindly offered to provide me with a mini usb keyboard, since I have the 3 and the 5 that would suffice for both. however the cable would still be an issue.

So. in all "earnesty", money is nice, equipment is better, money is nice, time is better, money is nice, time is limited.

If someone provides the equipment to the average nerd he/she won't be able to help him/herself but try to do it.

Money? well it's no good to eat but you can wipe your arse with it I suppose.
Sure yeah and buy food and toilet paper but I would have to leave my toys for that to happen... thank you internet!

So, in précis, send equipment not money, give donations after the work is done. money = stick, fun = carrot.

Hope that's nice and honest; friendly and to the point; off the wall enough to make an impact.

The work has actually been done largely already. this is a port job.
