Jack Ganssle was reviewing the new scope and logic analyser instruments from 
Agilent in his column in EE Times just recently. Not sure what price range 
you would find supportable but the devices seemed to have everything but the 
kitchen sink and cofee maker. I know, that may be the deal breaker.

As to use of GA144 chips I have had a few ideas along the binocular vision 
route. Two (cheap) cameras feeding the chip with video streams and 
performing something like Canny Edge Detection to determine the 
characteristics of the scene before it. This would be used in a self-guiding 
robot. The Canny Edge Detection algorithm looks like it could be spread over 
three or four cells for each vision channel with a few others to make sense 
out of the scene and provide guidance to the motors. I am not worried that I 
may not use the full capability of the whole chip for this.

Of course, if you get to need real processing muscle, hypercubing the chips 
would give you enormous processing potential.
