Is the CC3000 WiFi Shield compatible to connect to the Arduino (Uno or other) at the same time? I want to build a doorbell that both rings (well, plays a funny sound) and contacts my phone when someone's at the door.
Thanks,
Wifi & Wave at the same time?

Those should work together.

Thanks! The product descriptions didn't mention stickability, and I wasn't sure that was something that had to be designed into the board.

You'll want to order a set of stacking headers.

There will be some pin conflicts between the two shields that you will have to adjust for. The CC3000 uses pins 3, 4, 5, and 10, so you won't be able to use those on the waveshield. You will have to wire the waveshield jumpers to unused pins, and then modify the WaveHC library file WavePinDefs.h correspondingly.

Re: Wifi & Wave at the same time?
Apologies for opening an old thread but this is something I've started working on too.
I'm using the Arduino wifi shield, which has another SD card slot, so which shield should have the card with audio on it? I'm guessing that's the wave shield but then can you still list the files on the card through WiFi?

Re: Wifi & Wave at the same time?
The SD library only supports using one card at a time, so you can put it in either holder. As long as you have the right CS pin defined in your code and the other holder is empty, the code doesn't care which one you use.
