this is sounding awesome...
how do the samples get onto the SD card? if that can be done without an
ultra, count me in!!! even if it does require an ultra, i may still be
interested.
i've never programmed a flash ROM for these things, so i'm not sure what
data they hold in addition to "just" the sample. i'd be happy enough with
"just" 128M of samples in a command station or proteus (type) box.
if you can work out a platform neutral (java?) application for making SD
images, i'd drop some $$$ on the cards!
