I spy a Stellaris ARM Graphics library... It "is a royalty-free set of graphics primitives and a widget set for creating graphical user interfaces on Stellaris microcontroller-based boards that have a graphical display" I'd imagine the EvalBot would count Edit: I found the parent page: Stellaris Code Examples

Word to the wise: If you have pets, don't let your EvalBot run over a fur ball. Also, don't let your furball run over your Evalbot. ;D

Here's an interesting add-on kit for the EvalBot, it uses the two headers near the center for RF stuff. It appears to be going for $99 US. I assume it'll work with the EvalBot, and looks mighty nifty. Click here for more info: DK-EM2-7960R - Stellaris 13.56 MHz RFID Wireless KitPicture: (click to enlarge) The Kit includes:- 1 x DK-EM2-7960R - Stellaris 13.56 MHz RFID Wireless Kit (goes for $99 solo)
- 1 x DK-LM3S9B96-EM2 looks to be a generic "dock" for up to two RF modules for non-evalbot usage, supposedly for the LM3S9B96 dev platform (Though I'm sure you could just as easily pick SPI off of it, etc.) (goes for $39 solo)
- 2 x ISO/IEC 14443A (MIFAREĀ® 1K Classic) contactless smart cards
- 1 x CD with tools, documentation, and source code
The also add: "Please note: The DK-EM2-7960R firmware development software contains security features and is therefore subject to U.S. Export Controls. Please ensure you request and have received approval for the software download before purchasing the DK-EM2-7960R wireless kit."

Wow thats pretty awesome of them! I wonder if they are honoring the orders for legal reasons or if theres another motive (marketing). I hope it's the second one! Probably because TI is awesome One commenter on HaD put it this way: A trade show booth can run around $30k for a weekend, while this evalbot stuff is going to be all over the web. That being said, 2500 orders at a discount isn't cheap, either.

Eye spy with my little eye a nice JTAG header... There is an expansion board purpose built for the uP that will fit right on it. The two 2x10 pinheaders near the uP? The schematics say it's a "Wireless EM socket".. Lots of different RF pins going to it
