| Welcome to Fall! (Or Spring, depending on your hemisphere.) We're proud to introduce the inaugural ARTIK Newsletter. It's been a very busy time for the ARTIK team as we travel the Road to Beta. We have been busy shipping a limited number of Alpha versions of the ARTIK developer boards to labs, partners and our Alpha developers, and that's good news for our friends awaiting the Beta release – we're getting close! Our engineering team is working hard to finalize the developer boards and software, with the goal of shipping Beta boards by the end of November. In the meantime, we hope you've been keeping up with the ARTIK and SAMI blogs. In one of our most recent ARTIK blog posts, we used ARTIK and SAMI, along with libraries from our partner Temboo, to show you how to create a simple weather station that reads the local temperature and writes the data to the SAMI cloud for near-real time access and later analysis. We've also started our "IoT 101" blog series to help you get up to speed on concepts behind the architecture and design of IoT, and to help you make decisions around your IoT products. We started by covering basic connectivity and networking, with more to come. Keep an eye on the ARTIK blog for more of these tutorials, including an upcoming post on ideas for powering your IoT devices. If there are any topics you'd like to see covered in IoT 101 or elsewhere on our blogs, please let us know. ARTIK at the Tizen Developer Conference Recently, at the 2015 Tizen Developer Conference in Shenzhen, China, Tizen 3.0 was announced and demonstrated running on both ARTIK 5 and ARTIK 10. Curtis Sasaki, VP of Ecosystems, discussed the state of the IoT market, introduced the ARTIK platform, and also discussed Tizen on ARTIK and how SAMI is a key enabler. Samsung VP MK Kang hosted a technical session on ARTIK to a packed room, and Dr. Luc Julia presented and demonstrated how easy it was to create a Tizen TV Manifest in SAMI, get real-time data, and have the Tizen TV interact with other devices already connected to SAMI once the Manifest was created. Around 1,500 attended the conference. This was the first time the Tizen Developer Conference was held in Shenzhen, and it was breathtaking to see the rapid modernization of a large city and the move for Shenzhen to become a smart city. Needless to say, IoT and ARTIK drew a lot of excitement.  Accessing the ARTIK 10 GPIO It's time to start thinking about how you will use ARTIK in your application. Have you checked out our GPIO guide yet? (You'll need to login to view the page.) If not, you'll find helpful examples and diagrams describing how to use the ARTIK 10's I/Os. We'll be updating this guide for ARTIK 1 and ARTIK 5 in the future. 
Until next time... We value your feedback! We are working to improve both the content and organization of our documentation so that you can hit the ground running when you receive your ARTIK Beta DevKits. Please get in touch if there is any specific information you'd like to see in the ARTIK documentation, or if there are blog topics, tutorials or IoT tips that can help you get started. See you on the Road to Beta!
