I sent Patrick a PM about this in late May & he said "it is in the works". At the time they were trying to get it out at the same time as the combo. Hopefully the MMM mess did not slow down the developement of the hand held too much but I thought I would ask.
It's not an issue with me. I have a laptop with me pretty much 24/7. What would be really sweet would be bluetooth or IR, lol.
I agree though, for most, a handheld programmer would be ideal. Actually getting the laptop out and connecting it to the MM can be a pain when there's a lot going on.
I'll be different here and say I'd probably never use one. I find I never change the obscure stuff in the field. To change the basics, I just program with the transmitter.
So for all the newb's - there is a Castle Forum where threads like this are more appropriate.
This is the castle forum.
The last word from Patrick (on this thread) was on 8/22 where he said he hoped to have the card programmer done in Dec. If we keep talking about it, it will come.
