The other issue with RF certification is related to production volume--the certification costs related to WiFi in your phone/laptop is spread over millions of units. For comparatively low volume standalone WiFi modules the same cost is more

For a number of years I used the single file Python wiki pwyky ( http://infomesh.net/pwyky/ ) running on a server to serve as a personal lab notebook. I added general project notes, links to relevant resources and a chronological log of pro

My understanding is the 3.x series is tablet only and will be merged into a 4.x series for both tablets & phones.

Ah, I obviously mentally filtered the "/2i" from the URL so I thought I was already on the home page. :) Your additional "create your own" link makes this clearer. It would be nice if it was more obvious that the URL is referring to a speci

It's a neat idea but I think you need a clearer explanation of how to use it. Is it your intention to allow people to create their own entries?

That's a reasonable question to ask. There's a number of generic tools you could use for keeping a project log (Google Docs, a blog, wiki, text file) but at the moment the primary reason to use Labradoc is it focused on making project logs
