Recieved my Tahoe II Board from Microsoft!
For Round two of the Dare To Dream Different Challange I recieved a package from Microsoft. It includes a Device Solutions Tahoe II, two XBee Modules and a USB XBee Development board.
My first experiences with the Tahoe II board where very positive. USB debugging goes very fast and i’m impressed with the overall speed of the board. The board has less memory then the GHI boards I used to develop on. I don’t know what for implications this has.
I haven’t tried the XBee modules yet as I don’t need them in my application. When that’s finished I’ll try them. Together with the Bluetooth Modules I’ve ordered from SparkFun.
im using the bluetooth module BTM-222 from tme within mf.net:

they are good and very cheap
This is very nice, yesterday i have bought TahoeII.
As you i like that, but i dont have xbees
I want to start a new project but i am waiting my VS 2008 SP1 update, its installing now
i hope you will success…
Hi Sanny,
Great tip! The module you suggest is realy powerfull.. Only thing that I dislike is that it doesn’t have an onboard antenna
Hi Celiker,
I hope you like programming on the .NET Micro Framework, but I think you will..
you can add a simple cable with 31mm as antenna
