I have now received my new boards!!.. heres one made up!!.. Im sure Brad will comment on the silk colour
I have to say that the boards look fantastic, but there is absolutely no way that I would ever make mention of the amazing looking glossy white color of the board. Never ever ever. I won't even mention that they look just as cool as the white PICnDuino's!

I just want to let you know that I have posted an Article on the Firewing website for my Project.
Link is here
Matrix Game Shield
I have put together a Game which is based on Brads "The Great Race" and I have made a GUI to assist in helping you design your own Race Tracks!.. You can then upload your own Race Track to SD Card and using a SD Card shield you can then load the track from the SD Card, and play it on the Matrix/Game Shield.
All source and code, including the Game Shield Module is on the link above.
I hope that someone will find it useful with the amount of time I have spent on the whole project.

I dont really have any facilities or means of selling them, for example website sale page?
but if people are interested then they can send me a PM and I could arrange something. I have got a few spare PCB boards and components!.
