Tangent stoped selling these boards some time ago. It will be hard to find one but if you post a thread in the FS forums then you might get lucky!

Yep, that's the only way. There is only one unpopulated PINT left here in the Tangent Electronics Fortress of Solitude, and it's the official "file copy".
The PINT successor project is not dead, though. I expect to get some more work on it done here in the long weekend, though there are other things scheduled already...

Successor? Nice … Anything published about it yet? Will it be just as small as the PINT and maybe even run on a couple of AAA's or one 9V block?

Tangent and money permitting you could get some boards made yourself if you're desperate. There are a few fabs that cater to small prototype runs.

No, the circuit isn't 100% finalized yet. Still trying things.... I'll post about it on Headwize when I have something concrete.

Normally I'm inclined to release the PCB art and such for discontinued projects, as I've done with the META42 and MINT. But not the PINT. It's broken, so if you're going to go ahead and make more anyway, you're on your own.

Oh, cool, I have a whole year to get it out, then?

Well that's why I said tangent willing, I had a feeling you'd have that attitude.
So If you want to go that way you're going to have to break into the Tangent Electronics Fortress of Solitude and steal the last remaining board. Good luck on that one, the security measures are as imposing as the name.

Imagine stepping on a whole hallway of dead opamp pins before the real security measures begin.

Broken? Okay, thanks for letting me know!
I've been watching the SOHA thread on Headwize, so at least I've got something to keep me off the streets.

Oh, yeah, you think it's gonna be soooo easy, dontcha, ankle-biter? Yeah, you didn't count on the fact that the boards are kept in a state of the art, nearly unbreakable storage container, or that it's held in place by an uninterruptible stream graviton particles, didja? And that's if you manage to get into the inner sanctum at all, as IEATTEFLON intimated, wise man that he is.
I'll tell my minions to be waiting for you, mops in hand, to clean your remains from my domicile floor after you've attempted entrance. Muuuuahhhahhhahha!

So the legends were true.
You're as much a madman as a genius.
However impervious to PINT stealers your fortress is I have come up with a way past the Hall of Defective Op-amps:
Next I'll be brainstorming ways to break the unbreakable.
