The first board has been assembled. I'm going to be brave and hook this sucker up to my RioCar later today, after I get some sleep. Still to be done is to find a good source of +5 volts and the proper settings on the chip. Luckily this version of the board has jumpers. I'm not quite sure how to handle the reset pin on the chip. I left it floating. Hopefully it will work that way. I couldn't tell from the documentation whether it was necessary or not. I'll post the results when they are in.

Wish me luck.
