Someone sent me a JPEG of the board a while ago - I know about that one.

I was under the impression someone was going the DIY route?

Ludis has designed an add on board that fits on the card edge:

This is the way to get 8192 (or faster) out of a C3. I'm not suggesting
any scheme is better, just that there are DIY options, or pay the $s
for a canned solution. 

Gee, US$250, that's about a months wages here with the strength of the
