I walked through the instructions twice on two seperate occasions and
have never had any luck.  I think I'm hung up on getting a good IP.BIN
as I don't have any existing DC software to snag a copy from.  I found
a tool that claimed to make one, but the resulting disk doesn't read.

I'd sure love to have a working procedure, too.

Hard to develop code when you can't run it. :(  Not that anyone will
be interested in the stuff I'd be porting as it's all wierd amateur
radio digital stuff. :)

Is there any cheap sound input for the DC?  I can get line level
audio and I just need to sample it at 8KHz/16bit or such.  Is there
a cheap Maple device that does that?  I bought my DC for software
development and have never played a game on it. :)  I have no idea
what kinds of controllers are available for it--except for the
cool recent puru puru posts, that is.  I'm not sure if I can think
of a use for vibration in my application. :)
