mmmmmm I just looked again and STILL can see any Intel chips. There is
a big square NEC one not far from the TI DSP, but no sign of a lightning
bolt or Intel Symbol anywhere. I remember when enquiring about the
delivery delays on of the reasons qouted was because of a shortage of
Flash-Rom's. Perhaps they are using NEC ones now (not that I would
know what a Flash-Rom looked like, even if I fell over it :-) )
