Thats cool, but the track and hold seemed like a really useful feature.

Getting ready for the first release of the ELF series, I did a little
work on the Model 23 Analog Shift Register this weekend and (get this)
actually did the programming for a micro-controller myself and it
(gulp) worked! So instead of four CMOS chips required just to get the
timing stream for the shifting, it's now running all from a single
Atmel 2051. This obviously is a great cost savings, not only for component $$ but the cost of assembly as well and this will be past on to the end user.
Also, the Track in Hold feature seemed cool on paper but it's actually crap in use. So instead of that it'll have four shifted outputs instead of three and the mode switch.
Better.
