User guides, data sheets, etc.

I would like to offer a suggestion for your website. I am personally put off by a requirement to login or register in order to obtain data sheets and such.

I fully understand why you would want to have contact information, but I believe in a more unobtrusive approach. When I am in a hurry to gather some last minute information to defend my choices for possible hardware platforms, suppliers that make that process fast and easy garner extra points in my consideration.

I am a solid supporter of your family of devices and will continue to suggest them for appropriate projects. But I feel that you would benefit from making your product information easier to obtain.

Thanks,
David

Re:User guides, data sheets, etc.

I second this suggestion. I was put off by this the first time I came to this site, and I was thinking about not coming back. Data sheets should not be controlled in the same manner as prescription drugs!

When new users come here for the first time, they see an attitude that says "if you jump through all the hoops and play your cards right, we might actually allow you to become our customer"!

Besides, nobody at Luminary actually uses this contact info, anyway.
