If you remove the babyborad from your picture there are very few differences. The Mother is almost identical, its the addition of the Daughter that made things interesting.

cheers spiky.. but i already have a L8
It's the bit under the baby board that I'm interested in (on an L6)

Stu - when you say "almost identical" are we suggesting that a babyboard fitted to a L6 would make it functionally behave as an L8? or only "almost"?

Yes. The expansion points are already there on teh board for teh ribbon connector if you take a look. The software runs ok, but ive never done any extensive testing.

So in effect Stu, a L8 is just a L6 with the addition of a baby board?
