Memtype: Open Source Password Keeper

As you can see on the image below, memtype beta units are already ready to be shipped and have been shipped today !! At the end we don't shipped with tracking number so, we hope people who sent us the address to receive the units.

Thanks for all,

Noel & Miguel.

As you can see on the next picture we have soldered the units.

We will start shipping Memtypes to those people who have replied the shipping address to us.

Happy new year !!

We're having so much fun finishing Memtype that indeed time flies. We've realized we've been working on it for over a year and a half now!

Being so close to christmas makes us think how can we share a little bit of fun with some other people, so we're giving 15 memtype units for christmas. The idea is to give one unit to the people who think that can help us a little, either by using the device and beta testing it or maybe by helping in any other way.

If there's more than 15 people requesting a device, we'll personally decide the 15 of you who can be the best help for us !

To ask for one, just drop a comment and we will contact you throught your hackaday.io profile by sending you a private message. We'll publish on christmas day (25th December) the list of people who'll get one.

As most of the USB Open Source Projects, Memtype project needed a VID & PID to be identified during enumeration process. As buying a VID/PID number was not in our minds, we decided to adquire a PID with the help of http://pid.codes/ . This guys are giving a PID number to projects witch are open-source hardware (VID is fixed to 0x1209).

Thanks to pid.codes guys we obtained a PID for Memtype project and our USB device enumerates with the following VID/PID values: VID: 0x1209 --- PID: 0xA033

The VID/PID change has also been updated on the source code: https://github.com/jim17/memtype/commit/fb8d2c7cbb0eb8e9539f830e526f6a31fffdd7d4

Steps to follow to obtain a Free PID are described in: http://pid.codes/howto/

PID List can be found at: http://pid.codes/pids/

As we currently have a stable version of memtype we decided to release a user manual. The user manual is on the way, but you can find a diagram showing the different states of the device.
