565823 - Need some supporting equipment for wiring up Android boards

Hey Sean,

I'm wiring up the Android boards by my desk for a test run, and I don't have enough space to wire them all up on my networking equipment.

May I borrow:
* 4 ethernet cables
* 4 port hub
* 2 power strips (they have very large ac converters)

I also need the 2.1008 port patched into the network so we don't have to run cables across walkways.

= Potential Need =
We also need 6 SDCards for the boards (permanently), so that high frequency testing doesn't burn up the onboard flashmemory.  The SDCards only need to be 2Gb cards, nothing extravagant. The 6 comes from the total number of boards down here - the four that need to be hooked up plus the one on my desk and the one on Bob's desk.  I'm waiting to hear from Bmoss for the final "go"/"no-go" on the sdcard situation.

If we don't have this stuff on hand, I'm happy to make a quick trip to Fry's to get it.

Thanks a bunch,
-C

Let's go ahead and get 6 8gig sd cards for the test systems.

Port wired. Cables, Fast Ethernet switch, powerstrips deployed.

Sean, could we order one 5 port gigabit switch to use? I've given them one Fast Ethernet switch but they have said that a gigabit switch would be much more ideal to their needs.
