So are you saying that the plan is to move much of the configuration 
information from NOR flash to I2C EEPROMs on Freescale evaluation 
boards?  I'm not suggesting that it's a good or bad idea, but just keep 
in mind that the main raison d'etre for these boards is to serve as 
starting points for customer designs, and I'm not sure the majority of 
customers would use things this way.

regards,
Ben
