Inside these rather anonymous brown boxes are 100 beta versions of our new Cortex-M0 mbed Microcontroller, hot off the production line!
That means we're about ready to start beta trials! Listen out for more details next week...
We've also setup an email update list:
Sign up if you want to get updates as and when they progress through to release later this year!

Count me in for beta trial..was really waiting for MBED- Cortex M0..!!
Wow, that's great!
I wanna beta trial.Which type of Cortex-M0 in this board?
The silicon we're using isn't even announced yet, so we're not allowed to say right now :) But will fill in more details soon!
I need some hardcore zooming software, so that I can zoom in, and see what text is on top of that chip :D
Can we pleeeaaase get a pins count of the ic? (Only interested, cuz of easier assembly :D )
Awesome! I want to be in the beta.
Terrific!
Is this the new low power version that was hinted at?
Will it be pin compatible with the current mbed?
Questions, questions...
I would like to be in the beta too :o)
@Graham Harris
Yup, pin compatible as far the features on the MCU allow, and yes, designed with lower power in mind. Not necessarily extreme low power, but it can be put to sleep at significantly lower power than the LPC1768 mbed runs at.
You'll just have to wait a bit longer for the full details, not long now though :-)
It look great. Hopefully can have a try soon.. :)

I just signed up or the mailing list, how do I see everything that I've missed so far?
I want to be in the beta.²
Looks like 64 pins on the IC, if I'm guessing correctly!
Nice if you only need a small amount of pins to do a project! :D
Just signed to the mailing list and can not wait to test the trail one :)
Kind of curious why a Cortex-M0? It's the target market for embedded applications, but not sure if there's ethernet MAC, maybe that's why it's new silicon? Perhaps lower price point? Can't wait to see!
I want to know if the Test bed for mBed is available in the states? All the links I can find just run in circles about where to order.
And me as well. Feels a bit like Christmas early...

You have to put yourself on the list!
And yes, final release should be in time for xmas! So, now you know what to buy everyone this year :)
