Wooo! That board looks very nice indeed.

You went with BatchPCB yep? Did they send you extras or the exact number you ordered? I agree prototyping with them is a bit daunting. At £50 for ten boards (or more if they're bigguns) not to mention waiting a month to get them back, it's nice when everything works out okay.

Yup, I ordered 4 and got 8 which was nice. The price was scary to pay with no guarantee of success but I'm glad I did.

I'm going to probably rejig it a bit to make better use of the space in the case befroe I get a large batch but knowing the schematic capture is golden I can then rely on DRC to hold me through
