It didn't look too good for a while, but the replacement Freerunners are in the mail now. They should arrive in time unless the customs officer is having a really bad week (let's hope not :-). The tracking information currently says "Verzögerung bei der Verzollung" which means "Delayed at customs" so the coming week might prove interesting. :-)

I'm optimistic though, especially since I've already reworked 15 devices without problems.

In related news I'm thinking about getting myself a Weller WD 1000M soldering station. I've seen (and tried) this station in action at a friend's and I was pretty impressed. From standby to operational temperature in 3 seconds, auto standby when the pencil is inserted back into the rest and a short finger to tip distance make this station really pleasant to work with.
