regarding the "NEW 640x480 HD LCD":

is it the same as the previous ones offered (last 1-2 years)?
Any changes in brightness, etc?

Got my order in. Silly question but how do we find out if we were one of the first 5 to get the tote bag lol. Thank you for doing these again. Just missed the last one so I've been waiting for the next round of preorders

When you open your order!

WHYYYY!!! August is the month that my kids start school so I'm broke all month! Will there be another pre-order after this one?

Probably, but this will be the last pre-order that ships before the end of the year

I had a question: Is is possible to place an order from the Circuit Sword CM3 but WITHOUT the Raspberry Pi compute module at a slightly reduced price?

No sorry

I placed my order as soon as they opened haven’t had an order confirmation email or anything though?

I just pre-ordered the circuit sword. I would also like to order the higher resolution screen, but I don't have that much money right now, so I would love to buy it next month. Is there any way to reserve one?

No sorry

It is brand new (same overall dimensions as 320x240 LCD, no adapter required). It performs better than the version previously offered

Well projected shipping is my birthday so maybe I can use that as leverage with the lady...

Before ordering. (circuit sword lite) Is there a way to control the brightness of the screen? make it dimmer and brighter?

How easily accessible are these switches once everything is put together ? Would it be something I could easily change without taking apart?

I can can get to the switches via the battery compartment on the CS-Lite I just completed, you can enlarge the hole if you like but it isnt a requirement. You will need something small to manipulate the switches with. I can grab a picture tonight if you'd like a visual.

Hey, do you plan to design a pcb for the GBA SP?
Thanks!

If that is possible that would be awesome! Well I am glad to hear you have access to them when put together
