Hello all,

First, thanks to everyone who replied to my question on this cable I
wasn't accustomed to.

I was wondering. Did anyone try to solder 2 MB of Flash in the eMate
next to the original 2 MB?

I think the OS would recognize the additional chip if soldered on U9.
I just don't know where to find Intel's LH28F016 chips and even if I
knew, I definitely do not have sufficient soldering skills (note that
it's harder than the MP2K upgrade, something I'm not even capable of
doing, i.e. than replacing DRAM, I think the two Toshiba on the
detailed picture are the eMate's RAM, the pins are bigger).

Paul
