We're working on a permanent stock, but the flow of 24fj64ga002 has always been spotty. Thanks for your support! http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/preorder-5-bus-pirate-v3-assembled-p-609.html?cPath=61_68 Hey Jake, Just moments ago Seeed started a new preorder.

I would much rather purchase from seed (to help fund development as much as possible), but they always seem to be out of stock! Is there any way to get on a waiting list or something?

Measure between the 3.3v and gnd pins of the ICSP header to be sure. Maybe it was only the prototype where they did this. Check the Bus Pirate v2go or v3 article, it’s the 3v3 used for vr2.

That's a hard messup. Any suggestions on a replacement part for the *correct* vreg? I'd also like to replace. SparkFun REALLY fubar’d the voltage reg?!?! That’s a hard messup.

Especially since the bulk of the BP's value is in the software, not an area in which SparkFun is particularly prolific. Perhaps everyone at BPI,LLC can get a cut of the Free Day action. And I guess you could argue that moves like this help make Free Day possible. Personally I think it’s kind of weak that SparkFun doesn’t kick something back to Bus Pirate Int’l, LLC.

If I were to order one from them, I can have it in three days. Seeed Studio takes 3-4 weeks, and one order from them a while back took OVER FIVE WEEKS, even though the part was listed as "in stock". SparkFun's BPv3 was available about 3-4 days after Seeed had shipped mine out, and that took 3 weeks. The major reason I do like that SparkFun is now selling them is lead time.
