Right, the microcode SDK is proprietary to the vendor that SlimDevices
bought them from, Apparently very, very expensive.

I know I just bought a SDK/eval kit for some Ember zigbee systems,
and the SDK is $13K with dongles and all sorts of anti-open source
stuff. Runs only on Windows, the cross compiler won't talk
about Linux, etc. Not a fruitful place for hobby folks
to mess about.

That said, I've watched folks talk about wake-on-lan for ages, and
I fail to see what about it is attractive. What are people
hoping to accomplish? It always looked to me as a solution
looking for a problem. Seems that getting a low power server
and leaving it on all the time, like we do with routers, etc.
makes the problem go away.
