Adding MP3 playback to the Prop on the cheap!

I've been doing some hacking with the Miniclip player this afternoon.
Once you get past how tiny, (and delicate!) the board is, it's very well suited as an MP3 playback board for the Propeller.

It can run on 3v, and by pulling three connections momentarily low, you can control play/pause, forward, and reverse. Not bad for $3.00!

I've posted an Instructable with details and Spin code.

    Neat trick, OBC! I was going to ask which decoder chip it used, but it looks like one of those epoxy-covered chip-on-board things.
