 nice hand-held ground station we can use in full sunlight on the flight line.
 If it can help locate the rocket and is
 easy to carry during recovery operations, so much the better!

 ## Future Plans ##
 
-As of 23 October 2010, v0.1 circuit boards and a matching paste mask are 
-out for fab.  With any luck, we hope to have a couple prototypes working by
-the end of calendar 2010.

+In 2010, two v0.1 prototypes were assembled, and the hardware was 
+tested.  Unfortunately, this design turned out to be too expensive to
+manufacture and
+sell.  We then worked on a cost-reduced v0.2 design, which worked ok, but
+just wasn't very satisfying to use compared to a TeleBT and Android 
+device.  It's possible, but unlikely, that we'll come back to TeleTerra at 
+some point in the future.
