I have ordered the prototype NGT30s from OSH.  I decided not to modify the board (like make any Through-hole components SMD or anything) because I am terrible at SMD resistor sizes and couldn't figure it out.  Should get the boards in a few weeks :D

The new firmware will be pretty much the same as NGT20 firmware.  The board is just improved for flexibility and an added PS2 port, shrunken down and made more affordable.  I want to add something fun to the firmware but I have no idea what.  The current NGT30s have no NTSC/PAL port, so much of the RAM is not used and many cogs of the Propeller could be used.  If you have any thoughts let me know!
