Spoke with Century LInk about canceling internet at Farm. Difficult and expensive to do. We are on a two year contract so we are obligated to pay $200/line to cancel. Reducing service is not a significant savings.

Communication with Jeff Moe regarding the OHAI Kits.

Main note from Jeff:

"The kits are still a ways off.

We are building many machines right now. We recently finished all our back orders and have 43 boxed up on hand ready to ship. We can build 10+ machines a day. We did 14 on Friday. This batch is around 420 machines.

We are ordering for 512 more machines for assembly. We will likely order all the kit parts at that time. It can take awhile for it all to arrive, maybe March. By that time, we will have a new area of our factory floor laid out where we will be building the kits. The kits will be minimal versions with low cost in mind, so they likely won't include parts like the LCD. I don't have a BOM handy, but I mailed our CTO to get it and we'll put it on the devel server. Lets us know what ideas you may have for the kit itself.

Do you know how many kits you'll want to start with? Any projections for how many for the coming months?

If you or anyone else at Open Source Ecology would like to come out and go through our system to learn it, we are open to that.

Thanks,

-Jeff"
