DUET WIFI is here and now?

I just received a duet wifi, batch 3. Looks lovely, but no the question is what am I going to put it on?
Originally I was considering a kossel (maybe with a chimera), but I saw recently a diamond kossel (the three color hot end thing). Does the firmware support it?
When will there be an extension board for more extruders?

Yes RepRapFirmware has supported mixing extruders for a long time (longer than any other popular firmware), and people are already using Duets to control Diamond hot ends. You need to use a slicer that has a "Use firmware retraction" option, so that all 3 filaments are retracted equally.

We hope to finalise the DueX5 expansion board schematic within the next couple of days, after that the PCB layout will be done and prototypes manufactured. It will also be available in a cut-down version for those needing fewer extruders, probably as the DueX2.

Wonderful! I think this is possible with S3D than I am using for everything now.
Let us know when the duet x5 is available, it might be the moment to also get a second wifi since I might replace the rumba in my BigBox with it.

When I looked, I couldn't find a "Use firmware retraction" option in S3D, so I reverted to using slic3r for testing the firmware retraction feature.

It has to be done in the script section by hand.

I can see the "Retraction script", but no script to undo the retraction.

I've done the retraction settings with Cura in the pre-toolchange/post-toolchange sections.

I need to try it, but i was told it can be done in the additional commands section with the replace directives
