Re: new hardware

[Marc F Hult <MFHult@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

And the new "BX-24-compatible" now shipping from Zbasic.net is twice as fast
and has twice the RAM and NV data memory of the latest BX-24 (BX-24p).

Unlike the offerings from www.comfiletech.com that Dave helpfully references
(neat stuff !) the Zbasic devices from zbasic.net (also available as 40-pin
and 44-pin with more I/O)  are designed to be _code_ compatible with
Netmedia's BasicX language used by the BX-24 and BX-24p -- not just pin
compatible like Basic Stamp and Comfile Technology's CUBLOC.

The Atmel ATMega32-based Zbasic offerings still only have one hardware UART
(although software UARTS are improved). CUBLOC uses ATMega128 with two
hardware UARTs which can significantly simplify programming and reduces the
potential for comm (RS-xxx) errors. Both have plenty of speed for most
embedded HA apps IMO.

HTH ... Marc
