Some minor progress
I tried the button example wich worked fine. My application will probably want the data to go in the other direction so I will have to search for another example to modify.
The web button example
seems like I'm up and running
New hardware and a different interface
The sailboat is soon going up on land and I bougth some new hardware. It is a solar panel approx. 8 volt and 300 mA, a new waterproof Otterbox and a wifi development board from the OpenPicus project. At the moment I only have some vague ideas of what to do with it, I hope they will become clearer before christmas.
