I think it's our duty to win at least one of these. They limit it to one winning idea per person so I don't think we can quite sweep it but we can come close.

So what ideas do we have? I'd like to design an adapter board that allows you to connect a ribbon cable for an LCD screen, so I submitted that earlier. 

What do you have in mind, Michael? Maybe you can rig up something to make the boards WiFi compatible?

Well, that already exists.


GLCD Adapter
Laurent made a nice adapter to make it easy to plug a ReprapDiscount GLCD Panel into Smoothieboard.

The RRD GLCD comes with a RAMPS adapter, but wiring it to Smoothieboard without an adapter is quite messy, so this is something a lot of people want

He's now making a new adapter to support the recently added multiple SD card system in Smoothie

All that's left to do is make a prototype, test it, and fix things if needed
