John, Makes sense... promise, I won't try to hack that board. And I do trust you, very, very much. I've been reading your posts in a number of the forums for several years and you've been one of the few that tells it straight, makes sense of the complexity (and reveals the complexity where others see it as simple), and always makes sense! Oh, and comes up with unique yet very effective ways of getting better sound (like disconnecting the screen in the Touch). Truthfully, the main power division I was envisioning was between the Wandboard and the CSP... I had in the back of my mind that the different sections on the CSP would be both well-partitioned from a ground and power perspective AND as you pointed out, hard to hack. Thanks for the response and thanks in advance for the rough estimate.
