We were hoping to, but various things conspired to keep us busy revising them. Thanks much for taking a look though; we're having to make a lot of them as it's a 4-layer board and we'd like to avoid iterating too many times. > Software wise sdcc > sounds great.

I'm not tempted to try and figure out how to use a SPI RAM part for program data though. We've got 4KB of data space, which should suffice for the simple stuff we're doing. Bdale and I spent the day reviewing chip foot prints and have quite a few minor updates. Bdale stuck them all on his server: http://www.gag.com/~bdale/tmp/telemetrum/ This directory has postscript versions of the schematic and the pc board along with gerber files and a cnc drill file. -- keith.pack...@intel.com
