It looks like the major issues for the CCU/TCU timing are resolved.  The
new budgets should give Firefox plenty of margin.  We still need to
decide were the exact position of the SPL edges should be but this does
not have to be done before I to L.  The simulations show a problem with
noise on Pad VDD but this is a problem with using the 14x model and most
likely not a real problem.  Marlin should be able to change on his
simulations a little to verify this.

I have been getting the 8 Mbyte board ready to go into PC layout next
month.  I am looking into having them do it on an EGS system.  I am not
sure if it is practical.

I got a price estimate on the 2K x 8 SRAM's from Toshiba and Cypress.
Toshiba is quoting about $7.30 but Cypress is estimating that the price
will be between $11 and $16.
