Time to Shine
After the v3.1 Clock trial run was tested, it was time for a proper overhaul for this much requested version. 50 units were originally order to see how these babies do in the big leagues.
The R.E.M. II v4.1 Clock and Standard versions share the same hardware so they are nearly identical. Fixes include upgrading to v4 hardware, allowing more space for the dash panel, moving the jack and fixing the footprint, moving the buttons closer together, changing to a smaller 7 Seg controller, flipping the USB port in and adding a cut out for an external USB port; on top of all the standard v4.1 fixes as well.
The R.E.M. II v4.1 Clocks main differences over the Standard include the different form factor to fit into the dash, a Seven Segment Clock display to always show the time, and a lack of onboard MicroSD Card support.
