How much more memory do you need?
It supposedly has 256K (which seems a lot for this type of app). I
noticed that they provide the Gerber file, schematic and assembly diagrams,
and probably everything needed to seriously hack the thing if you cannot
bend the chip and/or PIO lines to your will.

i wouldn't know what to do with it. it's not enough to run
plan 9 or even inferno. at 100mbit, you can't do packet filtering or anything
like that.
what would one use it for?
