Well we hate to break it to you, but the PICAXE-40X1 has kicked the bucket. Shuffled off the mortal coil. Wacked, given up the ghost, became living-challenged, croaked, sprouted wings, snuffed out.
"IT'S NOT DEAD! JUST PINING FOR THE FJORDS!"
Well, that's not the case. But is does (did?) have beautiful plumage.
But that's okay - it's now back at the old family farm running around free with all the other discontinued PICAXE chips. It'll be happy there for ever and ever. But what about you, the grieving? Well, you know what they say - two is better than one. In this case, X2 is better than X1. And there's two X2's, so you're getting, like, four times the awesomeness.

So if you have youself an account, feel free to go over here and toss yours in for the count. You'll make a certain little Québécois boy very very happy.

Sorry, our office is closed Monday, October 11 for Canadian Thanksgiving. Being further north, we have to eat our turkeys sooner. If we don't do it now and celebrate it with our American cousins next month, the turkeys freeze to the tundra, and we have to suck on Turkeysicles. Ick. We'll be back to work […]
It's always nice to get feedback (especially when it's complementary!): I have to let you know about my experience with your company this Christmas season. I wanted to purchase a robotic kit for my husband who had never build a kit before. I called to get some information as I am very much a novice, […]
