A shameless plea for money.
Your too late, the goal has been reached.
Your too late, the goal has been reached.
Spoiler:
Yes, one of those rare occasions has come around again.
We need a few donations "to the cause".
The recipient will be NiLuJe.
I will be the organizer / tax collector / call me whatever name you will.
Donations to be co-ordinated by PM to myself.
Although if you want to go public with information on your contribution, this thread is the place for it.

Those are all of the 'basics' that people want/need and he has been keeping them up to date for a long time now.
The situation we face now
The USB networking package is a 'critical package' for many Kindle, after-market purposes.
There is a conflict between the USB networking package and the new Amazon Voice View feature that needs to be found / tested / fixed.
NiLuJe does not have the PW-3/VV/Serial port hardware required.
So I have volunteered myself to organize this fund raising effort.
I have also volunteered to do the serial port addition and handle the shipping and what-not of getting this done.
All of you people who are enjoying your custom screensavers and custom fonts should take special note of this request.
The package to NiLuJe will be:
PW-3 ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OQVZDJM/ )
less Special Offers ( follow customize link of above page to add $20 )
plus VoiceView dongle ( http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZGVVG92?tag=mr060-20 )
plus custom serial port addition (no charge for my labor on that, just parts cost), see:
http://www.digikey.com/product-detai...070-ND/2441359
plus a connector to be specified later ( less than $3 for both male/female parts)
(And I promise not to take 6 months to do the job - like I took for doing my own.)
Contact me via PM if interested in helping out.
