Seeed have always credited others for the designs of the nano and quad, the designer is Chai Xiao Guang. Just as Seeed carry designs by Dangerous Prototypes and others, I don’t think Seeed are being underhand. I agree that they could be more forthcoming on the details of collaborations they are involved with. At the same time, I have posted links to other sites like miniDSO and no attempt has been made to censor my posts… so I dont think they are trying to obfuscate the truth.
The miniDSO site would appear to be closer to the original developer (It appears that this is the original source of the firmware apparently), but the fact that Seeed had engineering samples at all would indicate that they have more than a passing association. I notice also that the miniDSO site appear to have missed out the V2 Nano in their range.
Ben… What version of the software have you used? Not that there is a huge difference between the versions, but 0118 seems the most reliable to me so far…
I think that if the software is heavily based on the Nano would that mean that new improved software might be easier to develop? I hope that you have plans to dabble.

PS. Thanks for your comment on the other thread Ben, I was really worried that I might have offended, kind of you to put my mind to rest.
