Is it possible to expand program memory in BS2p

All-
I am interested in expanding the memory available to programs (beyond the
built-in
memory) in a BS2P. Alternatively, what I am might be able to do is have multiple
programs (think program slots beyond the number of program slots available
within
the BS2P. Is that at all possible, and can anyone point to a reference on how
to
accomplish the deed.
-Thanks.

divide your program across banks, using the Scratchpad RAM to pass data back
and forth between them. There's a Nuts & Volts article on our web site that
goes into details of multi-bank programming.

one of the existing 'program slots' on the BS2p. I'm sure this would
be difficult, and you'd have to stop the BS2p program to accomplish
it. Might be easier just to have a SECOND Bs2p co-processor.
Note there do exist other modules (like Javelin) which have more
eeprom and more RAM on module.
