Hi Mike,

Thanks for the link!  I hadn't even thought to try a CF card in the
expansion slot; certainly opens up the possibilities.

It's Geode-based internet appliance, so power-consumption shouldn't be too
great.  The LCD panel probably consumes the majority of power in the
system.

I popped off the back to have another look (the trick to getting the metal
shielding off is to remove the DB9 serial port's screw-bolts).  There are
a couple of interesting headers in there; don't know what they do
though...  The cat likes to investigate these things as much as I do. :-)

Andrew.
