Hydra SD Expansion Card
I have begun work on interfacing a SD card to the Hydra Game Development system using a blank experimenter card and a SD breakout board. I have posted several pictures of its construction on my website along with links to the components that were used. This is still a work in progress, so please bear with me.
The following is a direct link to the image gallery I have setup to display the work I have accomplished so far: Image Gallery - http://www.balichmicro.com/image. Also, the website I am building (Balich Micro Technologies - http://www.balichmicro.com) is quite new and a large work in progress. I have high hopes for posting much of the work I have done regarding all realms of electronics, but this is a feat that is easier said than done.
Comments, criticisms, and ideas are always appreciated.

Thank-you for the kind words and suggestions! I've edited my initial post with embedded links along with my website address: (http://www.balichmicro.com) and image gallery link: (http://www.balichmicro.com/image). There is not much content, besides the Hydra SD Expansion Card, on the website right now, but that is going to be changing quickly.
Construction wise, I did the following (my website will soon reflect the same information):
The SD card breakout board is perpendicular to the Experimenter board. It allows me to wrap a finger around the bottom of the breakout board to provide extra support when I insert the SD card. I had consider mounting the SD breakout board vertically, but I have plans to try and squeeze some more components on the Experimenter board.
I must say that I have thoroughly enjoyed your two latest books The Black Art of Video Game Console Design and Game Programming for the Propeller Powered Hydra.
Thanks again
