So I figure it might be worth mentioning I'm in the process of 
ordering parts for 4 x0xb0xen (open source 303 clone: 
http://www.ladyada.net/make/x0xb0x/)

The part sourcing is fairly easy since Limor has parted it out already 
with mouser and digikey pn's - apart from some rare parts that I 
already have (and didn't source myself anyway). . . but that being 
said - let me know if anyone on this list is either doing the same 
thing - or interested in doing the same thing and some info sharing 
could be beneficial.

I am probably not going to use Eric's group order thing for this as 
it's a pretty huge BOM X 4 and it seems like it would be a bit of an 
abuse (in terms of shipping share - and Eric fronting the funds). I 
also am not really in a position to front anyone else's x0x-BOM - but 
let me know if you are interested in getting some parts and we can 
probably figure something out. (Limor makes kits that are never in 
stock due to some intense waiting lists that are years long - coupled 
with some extremely tough to get ahold of parts)

My estimate for the full project including her PCB's is around $350. 
That may be high or low... we'll see.
