NRF52DK extra sample chips 5 cpu bundle

Hello!

Some time ago you seem to bundle sample 5 x nRF52832 to nRF52DK. Recently there was no bundled chips. Why did you change that?

The development and prototyping process usually consists of stacking model on top of nRF52DK and then prototyping the custom board where I could use those extra bundled samples of nRF52832.

Please consider again bundling samples with DK or create a DK variant where for small additional extra costs such devices would be bundled (in 5 or 10 pieces). That would save extra time and effort to get those devices just to try something out. Maybe not everyone would be interested to get sample chips and make use of them, but I would definitely do, and I really liked the samples because they pushed me towards designing some custom design rather than just throw them away.

I would like to see that solution both for nRF52DK and nRF52840DK i have several of them in my lab. I would now just get that chip from my drawer and use it in my prototype, while extra time and shipment costs are necessary just to get one or two of them (usually 5 or 10 to get better price).

Now when I have to buy another NRF52DK I would prefer to buy chips only (much cheaper) and re-use develkits that I already have. Bundling sample chips with DK was a strong motivator to get both DK that I could use for other purposed and bundled sample chips for my prototype.

Best regards,

Tomek
