I've thought a few times about using that area. I never have because to access the data requires more work and code that the system ram. So far I've decided not to spend the code. For Rex, that space isn't available on T200 so I've not used it on that project.
I guess it's not a lot of code though. I could probably use it as lcd state storage on the m100 on the hardware scroll implementation rather than the Hayash directory entry. But it would use precious patch space in the rom. I enjoyed that video! LCD is tricky to work on.
