Hi List, I'm trying top do a project that uses the following features: - Web Host (OK) - Serial (OK) - keypad 3x4 matrix (OK) - SD card, (OK) - Keypad Buzzer (OK) - External Keypad / Mode LED (NO ROOM!!!!) Already the NetduinoPlus is fully utilized (as per pin assignments below). Are there plans to do a Netduino with capability of the Arduino Mega? This would be really powerful. My only alternate solution at present is to use an SPI I/O Expansion Thoughts Welcome? GPIO0 DRXD GPIO1 DTXD GPIO2 KBD INPUT GPIO3 KBD INPUT GPIO4 SPI1_NPCS0 GPIO5 KBD INPUT GPIO6 KBD INPUT GPIO7 BUZZER OUTPUT GPIO8 KBD OUTPUT GPIO9 KBD OUTPUT GPIO10 KBD OUTPUT GPIO11 SPI1_MOSI GPIO12 SPI1_MISO_RSV GPIO13 SPI1_SPCK

you could make a single pin analog keypad... like this http://www.instructa...eypad-Backpack/ to free up some pins from the 3x4 one

You could also use some nifty circuits to increase your I/O's: http://forums.netdui...h-the-netduino/
