To open
I think what Matt and Ettus Research has done is nothing less than Amazing.
On that note for people who are looking for alternate hardware solutions for their needs, I think we should heed the suggestions already stated earlier on the list to build our own solutions.
A bit about myself,
I have Aspergers Syndrome and as a result I do not work a normal job, but have the following to offer for those parties interested if collaborating with me.
I have to following to offer towards to initiative,
the Pros,
The time and desire to work on new hardware design aspects.
past experience in fabricating both Military and commercial electronic system prototypes, SMT reworking.
A functional LPKF 91S protomat Circuit board milling machine (and access to an additional 2 92S machines), currently able to produce two sided boards without plated holes.
the ability to work with Gerber, and a few other board file formats.
some experience with EAGLE CAD, and ORCAD 9.1
reflow oven soldering
some assorted test equipment.
The not so good,
I currently have a limited ability to write code due to limited experience (hence my reluctance to purchase a USRP)
My thinking on the matter,
I'm interested in seeing if the following would be of use to the hobiest types.
video card DACs, and video capture cards. As well as what types of board outlines and interfaces people would be interested in. a few examples I can think of are PCI, PCIe boards in both standard and mini types.
