To follow up on a recent post, here is the same real time clock demo using a JeeNode + USB BUB instead of an Arduino + Plug Shield:

(instead of JeeNode + USB BUB, the new JeeNode NoRF or a JeeNode USB could also have been used)

I chose to use two different ports for RTC and LCD, but these could just as easily have been daisy-chained on a single port.

The changes to the code are minimal, here is the complete sketch:

The changes affect a few declarations at the top, and the fact that the use of the Wire library was hard-wired into the getDate() function.
