Now available: RedPost/Box
You no longer need to buy a Sign from us to make a Sign…you can now hook up any size LCD/plasma/TV to our RedPost/Box…
A little back story: as much as I get annoyed at being a software company that manufactures hardware, I once again could not find what we wanted at the price we wanted it. And our volume isn’t high enough yet to outsource this (minimum 2,000 units needed…) so we’re just going to build it ourselves. Fortunately, it’s not quite as complicated as the RedPost/Sign(beta) to build. 1/4 the parts, 1/10 the time.
As of right now, the RedPost/Box is available for purchase in our online store (specs, 3D pdf). A standalone mini-pc-in-a-box (a sweet aluminum box, I should add), it’s $399, comes with wifi/wired networking options, and boots from USB flash running Wicker.
