Same here. I have also emailed him several times in the last couple weeks regarding the black board option as I had requested it.

No response.

Up until paying 2 months ago, I had been on the wait list since February. I had sent him several emails this year regarding Vampire 2 wait status and a request to purchase several other things. Also PM'd here on EAB. No response to any of them. Kinda disappointing.

just try to catch them on their IRC channel (link to webbased irc client on top of page)
depending on daytime, you may talk to a team member - i think kipper2k uses brian as nickname.
dont be discouraged, they do their best and wont let anyone down


#1) Kipper2k's blog - for latest news.

Hi Brian,

its good to see the boards being mainly populated apart from the connectors etc. Are these built by the outsource manufacturer or by Majsta's pick and place machine and infrared soldering lamp? Either way they look very professionally built

Hi,

These are being built by a board house in China, Majsta is not looking after the v600s, he is doing the V500+. It will only take a few minutes now to complete a board so production is sped up by a huge factor, this will allow the list to be shortened in no time

Ah you unwrapped them. I was wondering how these boards survived transit like that. Never thought there were that much active A600s around.

Yes DopPie. Amazing... Amazing and scary too. The Vampire A500 might have an infinite demand (compared to A600), killing any further opportunity of development for the A1200... unless the A500 users are too old and don't care accelerator boards.

I am not too worried about that hindering development. It shall be a cash cow that can be put to start different projects (and take a vacation as well). The aca500 that is coming better be dirt cheap as the v500 is promising to be a much better device.

Just read the update and that's great news. One question about the black boards. How do we test / verify "If they do turn out to be black capable"?

They will test it, and there will be a "B" next to your serial number printed on the card to show its a Black edition.
I got one of those cards.
