The C.H.I.P. Boot Repair Tool for Mac is here!

C.H.I.P. BOOT REPAIR TOOL FOR MAC!!!

Our suite of cross-platform repair tools is now complete!  Working off the framework Howie and Tina developed for the Windows version, Wynter and Crunch have popped our repair tool code into Mac OS!   This version has been tested on Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) and 10.11 (El Capitan).

For those of you looking for the Ubuntu and Windows versions…

While these tools are only necessary for C.H.I.P.s shipped from our first production batch in late December, they lay a lot of important groundwork for a user-friendly C.H.I.P. flashing tool in the future.   

DIRECT EMAIL > KICKSTARTER MESSAGES

We’ve identified an issue with the integration between ZenDesk, our customer service platform, and Kickstarter messages.  We read and respond to every Kickstarter message, but have found that our responses through ZenDesk get lost in the ether instead of getting back to you.

We are working to resolve the issue moving forward.  The best solution both long and short term is to contact us directly at ahoyahoy@nextthing.co, rather than using Kickstarter as a third party.

Again, for questions and support, email ahoyahoy@nextthing.co.

March C.H.I.P.s, ready to ship!

SHIPPING UPDATES

March C.H.I.P.s will be leaving our warehouse soon. We need final addresses for March C.H.I.P.sters by EOD Thursday.

December, January, February and Kernel Hacker C.H.I.P.sters should have either received their shipping notification or their C.H.I.P.s. If you have not, check your spam folder, and email us ahoyahoy@nextthing.co so we can sort it out.

PocketC.H.I.P.s and adapter boards are still on schedule to ship by May.

mmmtc (much much more to come)

hearts – everyone at Next Thing Co. (especially Wynter and Crunch)
