Hey Steve, No not as yet have been busy, they were delivered a couple of weeks ago in the mean time I set up the vm, built the gcc tool chain ect.....and forgot to save the machine state, windoze did an update and the machine wasn't saved lol.
In the meantime I think they "espressif" have changed/fixed some bugs in the sdk so i would have had to go again anyway.
Keen to get a proof of concept project completed, will post something soon hopefully.
Yeh I had a few ideas if they work. Will get one when I have time. _________________ Steven Martin

Yep I've spent hours of banging my head against a wall which is all the misinformation on the net.....aside from all the other misinformation
Many have alleged to have great success with this but with so many models now and dud tutorials going around, problems with pin definition docs ect. suffice to say I've spent ten of hours on this thing and probably many more to come.
Long story short Lubuntu vm built the gcc toolchain everything looked peachy until I typed "make" no cigar - my paths must be wrong.
Currently no real response from AT commands other than garbage data / prints some information to the serial monitor but that's coming from a Mega2650 not the ESP8266
Here is some progress I can connect to it via a S4 load the Robowars.org landing page 80% of the way will setup a simple html page to land on and see how that goes seems a few people have had success with that......now I must sleep!
Will do, I'd get a few some sellers are doing a 5 for $20 deal but the newer models are very different http://hackaday.com/2014/12/17/esp-gets-fcc-and-ce/ I'm going to get this lot working yet, no matter how long it takes.

Adafruit now has a tutorial and firmware for these.
Now to redo it and make a better interface. "Twitchiness" was due to him not having caps on his regulators so it had power fluctuations when wifi was active. Apparently. _________________ Steven Martin

I pretty much blindly followed them but they want to do a lot of stuff as root which makes me a little nervous. I managed to build all the examples and now just poking through them to see what I can do. Not a lot else I can do until I get my module and can start uploading but it looks like its relatively easy to do.
So looking at how you can use a native application on the ESP8266 to interface to a phone and send data back.
I know you can get the orientation of the phone from HTML5 and this works natively on most iOS and Android devices. You can also send data back to a server (in this case the ESP8266) via a web socket.
