As I was debugging the fpga computer design I had, I found a feature
with the software, no warning just compile with the bug. ARG!
How ever this was code for testing a SD card interface, and since the
card was NOT working I was looking all over for doc's on SD cards
(Not SDHC cards). They now have a bunch of interface chips for them
so your little embedded controller does not have to bit bang.
Next they will create one BIG chip to control all I/O until somebody
changes the standard again.
Ben.
PS Will reply back in January when the new standards hit the market 
place.PAY big $$$ for the doc's.
