Hi Eagan,

I always liked the idea of building an MP3 module out of something like
the Atmel chip, connecting it to the Newtons serial port and driving it
synchronously from MadMax. The Newton doesn't have enough grunt in my
mind to really support MP3 without some kind of hardware help.

Cheers.

Andy.
