Current latest/upcoming development board status

Hi,
I'm just wondering what the current status is regarding the latest/upcoming development board. What is the latest board and are there any new boards under development? I'm particularly interested in buying a board that supports the larger ECP5 lattice FPGA's and the open source development toolchain. What happened to BlackEdge? Thanks.

David.

Sounds like a question for @Folknology... tagging him!

Hi David and Ed, I will be doing a proper post soon regarding new products as we will launch one next month called BlackIce Nxt. In answer to you questions about BlackEdge, very few folks were interested in that particular format, very few were building with the BlackEdge connections. Instead we are going for designs based around Tiles and also new micro Blades. In the meantime you can find out a little more by catching up on the development stream recordings : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQSPg8L4WFBGuj_MnvQQ7Qw/videos or join the realtime conversation with the developers etc on our Discord server
