My device is essentially a music player, but the nature of it makes it 
difficult to give the user access to the SD card slot. More than that, SD cards 
are notorious for their lack of reliability compared to the on-board eMMC.

SPI. I wanted to put a TI WiLink module on my cape, so I got the existing Wi-Fi 
cape and tried it out. But it conflicts with the eMMC, because the SPI pins 
brought out on the connectors are the same ones used by the eMMC (I think I 
have that right). The Bluetooth side of that module uses a UART.
