I just found that 20 minutes ago and was so excited that I ordered an Emotiv right away. Great to see that you're an HN user, I'm looking forward to playing with the Python library.
Awesome. Feel free to hit me up on #emokit on irc.freenode.net. One note: the new headsets may have a different key than the older ones. This has not yet been confirmed, but if it is the case, I'll get it working again regardless.
