I'm going to ignore the bit about the Wavebird transceivers. And the small incongruities. And the lack of all external buttons and switches needed for a Wiikey.
Speaking of the Wiikey, I suppose I must finally admit defeat in the face of tiny soldering. The one that I had ordered was one that was ten dollars less expensive than the least I could possibly pay (I know, I'm too extravagant) because the connecter had superglue in it. To make a long workday short, I thought I could get the glue out. I couldn't. Thought I could solder straight to the board. I couldn't. So now I'm ordering another, with all the things I have to order.

I have also come up with a completion "deadline" - Sunday, two week's time from today. Deadline is in quotations because my real deadline is Thanksgiving Break, as that is when my nerd friends get back from University of Wyoming. Also, it is very possible that shipping will delay things far beyond two weeks, but it should still be close.
I'll try to get pictures of all my CAD models up tomorrow, and I'm ordering everything but the plastic for the case tonight.
Until next time,
-K
