Yes, 128 mbit, I didn't realize there was such a cost difference!  Now I
wonder why the dragonfly board didn't use a 64mbit part instead of 128.
Anyway, for the 8th board it doesn't matter, since there is the
"infinite" SD card slot.  In fact is there a particular reason to use a
micro socket instead of full sized, given that the board is fairly
large?

Hmm, ok, well I'll be interested in seeing this when available.

Is there a way to decrease the system clock speed to save power?
I.e. not dynamically but with some kind of boot setting or jumper.
To misquote someone, 640 kilohertz ought to be enough for everyone :).
