Projekt Web51: Nice project, but I have some doubts

[akira.nakandakare@nto.atmel.com]

Hello,

Thank you a lot for the information.

I've presented your interest in cooperation with Atmel to the guys 
here, but it looks that the Atmel's objective is to develop it's very 
own 8051 Ethernet card. Besides that, Atmel have already developed a 
TCP/IP API and we are going to use it.

The project is about developing an 8051 Ethernet card a lot like yours. 
I will use the Atmel T89C51CC01. It has 32Kbytes of flash memory, 8 
channel ADC and a CAN controller.

I am still studing what kind of interfaces and components we can use. 
Currently, I think I will use the RTL8019AS too, perhaps using its 
interrupt. I will use also a port RS232 and the CAN controller. I'm not 
sure yet about how I'll use the other ports.

Up to this time, I don't know what will be the Atmel's privacy politics 
about this product, but if you want I will share with you as much 
information as I can.
