[TriEmbed] nRF8001 BLE

[jonjwolfe at anibit.com]

I have not used the Redbear device, but I do have some I plan to sell. I 
have not put them up on my site yet, but shoot me an email if you're 
interested.

It is the Blend Micro, $34.95 + NC sales tax. You can save on shipping 
if you can meet before a triembed meeting or else meet me in central 
Cary.
