Remember my plan to build a tap program and use the Mimo 7” monitor? It had a web camera on the monitor and was touch screen as well. Very cool product. Well it turns out that three months after I placed my order the Gadgeteers are not able to fulfill the orders and are refunding all current orders or giving the option to get a UM710 at a small discount. Since I really needed the web cam and touch screen features for my tap project the 710 is not an option for me.
This really sucks! I might be able to pick one up on ebay but I am sure lot of other people are looking for it now as well. Oh well, maybe I will have to build a bar top MAME cabinet instead to add to the pub.
Twitter It!
Build the MAME machine! I built my own stand up arcade cabinet to house my MAME computer and my library of nearly 1000 arcade games. I included an X-Arcade joystick and a coin mechanism as well, which requires a quarter before you can play a game.
