That's a very good Idea, Eric !  I think interest is here .
And people on this list would probably buy the boards from you. I  
think once people see  and hear what it can do. They will definitely  
want one.
Would you consider putting an Audio CODEC ,  EEPROM and some SRAM on  
the  board as well . Or do you like to keep things flexible like the  
version 1 ?
