Re: [NTLK] Emate 300 hacking

Sounds good.
 
If you send me your address, I'll send you a chip as soon as I receive them.

Well, if you send me the chip, I would even risk one of my
Frankenstein eMates and try it. I would expect that the OS will not
support the new memory, but it would be worth trying. Make sure you
only take me up on this if you are prepared for loosing the chip. And
if you are willing to ship it to Germany. If this operation is
successful, I will send you the upgraded mainboard in exchange for a
normal one.
