  1. Do you care to show us the project you used to test your GPS receivers? I think this would be great for basic geocached goodness. I guess that;s the ones in the photos… maybe toss something on github :)

  2. Is it possible to use with ethernet shield, of course with some cut in black plastic.

  3. kevin, we’ll have a tutorial soon with code and wiring.

    bob, we don’t think so, the ethernet shield is very tall! you -might- be able to do it if you cut down the over-long header pins but even then its probably too tall.

  4. Couldn’t you have reversed it and put all the threaded posts in the front and the screw holes in the back?

  5. having a single-piece enclosure keeps the price low and manufacturability high – especially for small niche items like this!

  6. Wow, somehow I missed the fact that the back and the front were the same thing. What would be weird would be putting two LCD’s in there one on either side (if they would fit).

    How about some soft plastic plugs to fit flush in the screw holes (but easy enough to pry out to open when necessary)? Maybe only two of the screws are enough to keep the halves together (if they mate well enough).
