I have to ask, as nobody else has, is there any explanation as to why Dave was having issues with his kit when he first tried it? He got it to work afterwards, but was it something he hadn't plugged in properly, i.e. power cable a bit loose, or was it something wrong with the kit?
It looks a very useful piece of dev kit, and the price seems to be very reasonable, I haven't looked at UK pricing for it yet, I was a bit concerned about the issues Dave was having.
