-
- This is basically what I heard:
-
- They were planning (a few months ago, seems to have gotten lost in the shuffle)
- to release a "burn-your-own-custom-ROMs kit".
-
- This would most likely have included enough of a development system to allow
- users to add their own protocols to the ROMs and, possibly, allow those who
- wanted to, to hack the ROMs to suit their needs (default settings, etc)
-
-
- Thinking about this, I'm not terribly surprised that they might drop such a
- project.
