Pete is no longer with Sparkfun.

He provides pretty good support for these in the Sparkfun Forum as well.

I recently made a clock using the Sparkfun 6.5-inch 7-segment display digits. My clock uses a GPS module to get the time. I opted to add a hardware switch for DST, because the clock is now permanently installed in a large venue and I didn't want to have to reprogram it if/when legislation changes DST timing again.

It's should also be mentioned that Mr. Robertson also provides very good, very fast support for his products in the Sparkfun forum.

I'm having flashbacks to the days of running a 300bps modem on my Commodore 64. My modem, which plugged into a slot on the back of the C64, was slightly more advanced than an acoustic coupler. I had to dial the number manually, then unplug the handset and connect its wire to the modem when I heard the answering carrier. You could read the text from the BBS as quickly as it appeared. Even Q-Link (AOL before it was AOL) was barely usable.

Hey, that's me! Thanks Sparkfun!

The best block has to be the GPIO block. If Edison can't talk to the rest of the world, what good is it?
No public wish lists :(
