Default Xport teardown

We looked at using the Xport module but at $49 in quantity, it was too
expensive to put in a product. We did settle on the Microchip PIC18F97J60.
One of our guys is a whiz at the PIC series. We bought the C18 compiler and
the ICD2 emulator, the rest of the design environment and TCP/IP stack are
FREE! Depending how you package it, will take a bit more space than the
Xport but is about half the price (or less) in quantity.

This is the Lantronix Xport module.

This particuler unit randomly, a couple of times a week maybe, draws a
lot of power and gets very hot, 80C or so, and still works, but
flakily. So we decided to rip it open and see what's inside.

I love those LEDs.

The two chips are a Lantronix thing and an Atmel serial flash. So
there must be a heap of ram inside the Lantronix chip, enough for the
tcp/ip stack and the jvm and all that.

I scaled the pic res down, as the original files were huge.
