RE: Ethernet Boards




> What's the downsides to Rabbit, Kevin ?
You pretty much have to make your own add on boards for the Rabbits
although they are excellent as a platform to work with. My only
observation with them is you are stuck with their form factor. In the case
of my current project this would be a problem as I want the RJ45 in the
middle with some buttons above it. The Rabbit boards would interfere here.
It's only a small gripe and probably not a problem for most people.

You would normally make your own PCB's with power and other interface
circuitry to get the job done.

cheap

I have always found the basic board gets outgrown all too quickly :-((
