hi,

well, if you people think that it is not need to put the news here, then I beg yours pardon.
I just thought that if somebody posted something like Triscend EOL Notification here, then maybe somebody is interesting with the new chips from Atmel as well. For example, how much people heard about AT89S8253 before? By the way, Atmel`s site has not this device in their news articles - I was noticed about it from an Atmel`s local distributor.

Kai, I agree that people may visit Atmel`s site and see the news there. But what should I do if I already have visited it and know the news? We all sometimes have no time to look at vendors` sites and what is the wrong if somebody does collect and post the news for us one time per month? We have WeekEnd Offtopic posts, why we may not have MonthEnd News posts?

Anyway, thank you all for the comments. Next time I will be more prudent about my posts.

Sincerely yours,
Oleg
