 they're not, lauri - thanks for the heads up though.  the system i
designed is for mass-volume purposes, for where end-users may place
the CPU Card in their pockets (without anti-static bags or other
physical precautions).  the hummingbird design is for engineers who
have experience with physical protection of devices, take care of
anti-static precautions and so on.

 so it is very different.
