Quick update for those interested:

Microchip does not give out samples of their dev boards/kits, but I did get a discount code. If I have trouble programming on the fully built BlueSaab I'll probably grab a dev kit.

I've also found a microphone that is a physical drop-in replacement in the Saab mic housing, and should also work with the RN52 BIAS line. It's the CMC-9745-130T made by CUI. I just ordered a few to test with at the same time I ordered a set of everything for a BlueSaab 6.1.1. The only downside is there's no decent mic that I could find with pins instead of solder pads, so the soldering and assembly may be a bit fiddly. Though, if nobody really wants to add this, maybe it's not such a big deal! :)

I'll keep updating as I get my BlueSaab built and start to integrate with the microphone.

What are you guys using to interface with everything once it's assembled into a full BlueSaab? Is it still the FTDI UART/USB cable? Do I need a separate one to talk to/program the STM32?
