Great!

I'm in for at least 2 boards initially. I'm also pretty sure that the
software module or "hardware wrapper" can be derived from the existing STG
code without a major amount of work. Also, if you were thinking of adding an
A/D chip, take a look at the MAX197. It's relatively slow, but it has eight
12-bit channels, programmable input scales and it's cheap at $9.90 in
quantity. I could live without this, but if there's room it would be a nice
addition.
