I had a kit for my birthday that needs soldering so I'll have to get myself an iron anyway. Not sure whether to get a cheap one or spend a bit more on a temperature controlled iron.
We wanted to let you know that you have been selected to receive one of our developer kits. We believe that you are capable of making great things and we want to help.
The delivery of the kit should occur in a few weeks and we’ll send you a tracking number as soon as it’s in our system.
In some cases, despite our allocation and our best efforts, we may be unable to deliver a kit due to customs and other export or shipping complications. We will let you know if this happens and we still welcome your participation in our program.
Thank you again for your interest and we can't wait to see what you will make!
