Hi Harald,

my congratulations to the cool new Ethernut Website design!

Very nice look!

Just a few criticism :) I just got lost after a few clicks :) So here
are some Ideas how to improve the site... 

- On a large screen the information get's a little bit lost (long text
  rows). Perhaps think about a design with fixed width (centered) or at
  least a maximum width.

- Some pages could provide a little more information itself, but not
  just linking to the next page. Will say, there is a quite deep nesting
  level of the pages.

- A menu (just small text links) providing some kind of a site map,
  would help very much to directly find the information one is looking
  for. Like:

Hardware 
    Reference Designs
        Ethernut 1
        Ethernut 2
        ....
    Compatible Boards
        ....
    Add-Ons
        ....
Firmware
    ....
Tools
    ....

- When entering a new site, it would help a lot to not get lost in the
site-tree, if you would provide a small hint with the nesting level on
top of the page like:

Hardware > Reference Designs > Ethernut3

where you could click every level to easily find back your way to the
starting point...

Bye,

Ole

PS: What's about you, do you attend the Embedded World this year?
