Hi Tom,
Thanks for the offer. That will help. While you posted above offer, I realized the pico was SMT mounted in the Game*Mite. That is difficult to replace.
It will be a winter project, since I will order some other parts. Not worth shipping these from UK.
My Pico2plus (cost 12 UKP) added 10 UKP shipping to neterlands, 3 EU import duties, 7 EU Handling cost, so the Pico2 plus costed me 35 euro's. Not going that path again. A pico2 in a dutch webshop costs me 6 euro (OK, I don't have the PS RAM, but it will run 315MHz).
I learned 2 things
- UK to Europe is costing lots of money, better buy within Europe.
- The PSRAM adds cost, and lowers performance. Only use it when RAM absolutely needed.

EDIT: I just ordered 2 new pico2's (max 2 per customer). One for the Game*Mite.
