Did you actually buy the Ember, or did they give you one to play with? I have a hard time understanding the value proposition there; it's nearly twice the price of the Form1+, has a much smaller part volume, and the software that makes it work is still a work in progress. Is the "open source" aspect so compelling as to make it worth purchasing? How many people really want to tinker with the source code for these things? Most people seem to just want something that works....
