Yeah that's true and i'm sure it's possible!
Thanks for the additional hints, by the way i got all that datasheets.

Though i'm familiar with these tiny little chips and devices (although it's
more hardware related) and really like such experiments, my sparetime is
very limited to allow such overclocking experiments at the moment, i'm
afraid ;-).
Additionally i'm just in the process of increasing usability of my GTA02 to
use it everyday......
... so perhaps i should stick a bit to the higher level right now.

Anyway i just started this thread and i'm a curious guy, so never say never.

Regards,
