If you live outside the US it is not worth contacting JDR Microdevices because they try and do the "right thing", namely, they will ask you to fill out an export declaration form to the effect that you will not pass on the chips to unspecified other nations. They also have a minimum order amount, which from memory was worth 2-3 chips. Thanks for posting the saga. I am sure many will appreciate the effort. I did. -- ============================================================================= Ash Nallawalla Tel: +61 3 550-1638 BH; Fax +61 3 742-4566 (Home) ZL4LM/VK3CIT Postal: P.O.
