ARM Cortex on a Teensy is cool, if only there was a keyboard firmware somewhere out there for the Cortex-M4 and not AVR.

Can this teensy be used to replace the teensy for phantom? Any more benefit to this 3.0 version than the one for phantom?

Its basically a Teensy 2.0 merged with a 2.0++.
Fancy new chip with the cortex but memory and the alike are comparable.

Guys: MicroUSB. 'nuff said.

I'd probably be interested in the less-expensive second batch. It's only a month later, and I can't thing of any reason to have it that early.

Is there any way you can (for example) run a basic display on this to show RSS feeds or something? Then we'd have a competitor to the madcatz keyboard. I mean a display like this:

This hasn't been explictly said yet: This is a completely different architecture than the teensy 2.0.
It will not work with current firmware that run on the AVR.
