True. But the code for the bootloader is available, and so (I am told)

that I think I have brickedthe Coridium ARMmite board I was planning to
use as the brain of my firefighting bot...

Ummm, what is "bricked"? :-)

Brick (v). To render inoperable, i.e., as functional as a brick.

I thought you also had the ARMexpress.

Yep. But that has no A/D inputs, without which it's pretty useless, at

distance to the walls, flame sensor signal, etc.)
