I'm probably not the kind of person to bring much to the table, either, but
what kind of equipment would one need to actually attempt anything with
such a
card at this point?

I recall various videos with cards being interfaced to things, but they
might
have involved previous generations of equipment like that "micro engineering
board" that was made a few years ago, so it might be useful to know what the
practical requirements are for those who are able to contribute effectively
in
the near future. (Or maybe those people don't need me to ask because they
already know what they'll need.)


I believe Luke provided some clues when he wrote that he is going to
provide:
OTG-Host Cable, breakout board (or microdesktop) and RS232-USB-UART.
with the pre-production boards.
