Hi i have been holding back this information (because of NDA) but it seems that digikey doesnt care about about NDA as the part is already orderable CMA3000-D01 http://parts.digikey.com/1/parts/1621768-accelerometer-3-axis-spi-i2c-smd-cma3000-d01.html in th NOV issue there is a picture of this sensor (page 18) http://groups.google.com/group/antti-brain/files?hl=en it is the same device as introduced in followin PR http://www.vti.fi/en/news-events/press-releases/view/1229408564.html its really weird, i have been waiting VTI to officially announce this device, so have hold back all our commentary on it, but as the news is LEAKED now by DIGIKEY, so it is now in the wild we have the device working in one of our prototypes, so i can confirm those devices are real, and they do work. I will write a little bit about them in our DEC issue. Antti Lukats www.trioflex.com PS ST just announced a new 3AXIS MEMS with same power consumption (10uA)
2x2mm 10uA current 3-AXIS mems sensor

That will make integration into prototypes more difficult for those of us still building boards by hand soldering. Someone needs to market a small stamped lead frame for packages like this. You would lay the chip on its back and solder the individual leads to the BGA solder balls (or contacts on a QFN package). You would then either snip the lead frame or remove the adhesive backing and solder the leads down to the pads on your PCB. Mark Borgerson

I can't find the ST version, do you have a link? thanks

There are 5 DS roms known that have know STACK overflow exploits found that allows the game state eeprom to be written with special code that is executed after being loaded. but those are not old games :) you cant just go and buy any old game it is of no use! For making the slot2 adapters, then well 1.6mm thick PCB is all you need I find the DS the easiest gadget to use, the CPLD board is SO easy to use and reprogram - no need to fight with impact :) and the C library support is superiour, really easy to write hardware related stuff. much more easier than it was in the old days when PCs used to have LPT ports!
