I thought (or at least the way that it was presented in the KFest S&G college)
was that you needed to have one false read. This means that If you wante to
read Registers 10-20, you could false read 9, and then read 10, 11, and so
on using auto-increment. I've never tried this personally, but thats how
I've always understood it to work.
