Hi Mark,

I'd just like to re-state my interest again in purchasing two
flashboards, when they get produced.  Thinking about this some more, I
could potentially also provide some up-front funding if this would help.

Also, I recall an informal survey you did some time ago about whether
the board should be updated with a Bluetooth or USB host chip.  At the
time I said go for Bluetooth, but I've changed my mind since.  The
proliferation of USB Flash disks, cameras with USB and other devices
would make a USB Host on the Jornada a really useful thing to have.  One
other thing to consider would be USB Client ("Gadget" in the Kernel")
support.  I presume this does not require any hardware support, it'd be
useful to have since then a Jornada could be used effectively as an USB
Flash Disk.

Cheers,

-mato
