Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

The 1522 we ordered from Amazon in January 2012 was rev. B so I think it would be virtually certain that you would recieve a rev. B from Amazon at his time.

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

On the other hand, the 1522 we ordered from Amazon in February 2012 was rev. A.

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

We ordered around or later than that, and it was also an A.

Nothing difficult is ever easy.

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

Here is one item that probably should have been on FIRST Choice, if only to make it easier for more teams to get the right thing. Granted, everyone gets one in the KOP but if there's one thing that every team should have a backup of, it's the wireless bridge. Consumer products like this are way too flaky.

It may not be on FIRST Choice, but it IS available from AndyMark:

As they say,

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

I'm confused - the blog post said all teams would get a RevB in the 2013 kit - why are people worried?

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

Mostly about obtaining backups. We managed to go through 2 RevA's last season...

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

We ended up purchasing two from amazon to replace ours and for a pre-rookie for an offseason, guess I should go check and see what revision they are.

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

We had to buy two more this year as well. After all the grief they've caused, I just plain don't trust D-Links for FRC. I hope RevB is better, but we intend to have at least one spare at all times.

And they are presently out of stock at Andy Mark

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

Back in stock at AndyMark, and I also picked up the one I ordered from Best Buy today. It is a RevB, and they again confirmed they have only RevB versions. No guarantees from me, but at $80, free shipping, <3 day delivery (ship to store), and no-hassle returns for 60? days, I'm pretty happy. Then again, for $15 more, AM is still the only vendor I know that will guarantee is writing.

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

Best Buy redeems themselves for once :) And to think I planned to never set foot in one of their stores again...

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

I wouldn't for another 48-72 hours. :D

Re: 2013 Robot Bridge-Rev B Only
 

I just returned from the Microcenter in Madison Heights, Michigan. I had to stop by to grab a router, and checked their stock. They had approximately 15 on the shelves, and only 4 were rev. B. Their price is $79.99, so it was a nice savings over AM. I picked up 2.

The picture on the box of the Rev B shows the new picture, and under hardware version on the bottom of the Box it says "B1". The rev A box says "A1".
