For our Jewish friends we hope that your Hanukkah celebration has been a happy one. To those who celebrate Christmas -- or even if you don't -- we wish you joy as well.
If you're looking for a last-minute gift for yourself, consider the Prop-Plug programmer.

Why? Well, even if you're not a "hacker" yet, you can use the Prop-Plug to download code updates to your Propeller-powered boards (FC-4+, HC+8+, RC-4+, EZ-8+) when we release them. And we have a program update for the HC-8+ coming soon. Most of the work is internal and to support the new Rev F pcb, but we added a feature that lets you set a group of contiguous channels to a specif level -- this can save precious code space in Prop-1 programs.
For example, you could set channels 5, 6, and 7 to 50% with this new command (Prop-1 example):
SEROUT Sio, OT2400, ("!HC8", %00, "LM", 5, 7, 128)
