Ok, guys, we had a thread about NXP's site a while ago. Long story short
I wrote to them and, surprise, they engaged in a lively back-and-forth
improvement session and really listened. They changed a lot of stuff,
got rid of fluff and while not perfect yet I think the NXP site has
improved quite a bit. Heck, now you can even use it with Java Script
turned off (gets rid of the nag screen). And no, I am not paid by them,
just got involved because I didn't want to see a company that was good
to me go down the tubes.

So what do thee think?

That is a nice selector, I could actually find things.
I hope they payed you for it :-)


Nope. They offered a gift, probably some kind of electronics gizmo. Told
them to consider giving it to an orphanage or charity instead, I've got
enough toys ;-)

Nice.


The nice thing is that they listened, not many companies do that.

Yes, I am a bit surprised that such a big company as nxp does not
have the in-house expertise to make a good website.

Anyways many of those big company sites are horrible to navigate,
full of boasting bull, so you did a great job in my view.
Now the *next* thing is have them add a web shop,
so I can order 2 transistors, or 3 different chips, without
having to do a hopeless search locally for somebody who would
be even willing to sell the stuff :-)
Or did I overlook the webshop?
