Re: Donation information / usage
Thanks for all the donations btw.
Current spending (up to 07/08/2012:
* £50 was spent on keyrings. so far around 8-9 have been sent out to donators. some will be given out on the forum here.
* ~£57 was spent on shipping over some openpeak devices from USA which I have shared with devs over at the joggler forum http://www.jogglerwiki.com/forum/
* ~£41 donated to www.scenesat.com - a website connected to my own retro computing site, and a great demo scene radio show - I recommend you tune in and have a listen or check out their show archives - which btw is available using the "relive" xbmc addon which works great on the xbox1 (one of mine)

Re: Donation information / usage
* £132.01 to cover postage costs for a debug kit and modded retail 128mb board to be sent over from canada. Massive thanks to XPhazer - I'll try and remember to post some unboxing pics and a pic of it once it's all setup! Note: Actualy postage costs were $140 CAD, and XPhazer asked for nothing, but I didn't think he should be out of pocket so I transferred $200 CAD, for the postage, and a little something towards the hardware, or for a beer or something. XPhazer is the awesomeness
* £35.06 for a MaKey MaKey - http://www.makeymakey.com/ so I can make an xbox1 controller with bananas (for example)
