Well, the ///SSH homepage was a bit unclear, thus my confusion. Will they provide the 1.8 EPROM
if you buy the 32k cache? If so, then I CAN go from 1.3 --> 1.8. They made it sound like you
had to have a 1.5 before you could get the 1.8, and the only way that could make sense was if
you traded in your 1.5 and they reburned the 1.8 onto your old EPROM.
