- Well...
-
- Some results are in.
-
- Board differences (Board Rev B for the E, E+): clock speed select switch.
-
- The real difference seems to be in the contents of the EEPROM. We tried
- looking at this and discovered that the drain caused by the scope dropped
- the signal enough to make the modem think it was a non-plus model (on E+).
-
- We're working on decoding the contents... maybe we'll be able to release an
- 'upgrade ROM' to change at least some of the E's to E+'s...
-
- 'nough said.
