Jeff, thank you for referring to my item on eBay. You bet I am working quite hard on a redesigned and re-laid-out RU800 which I have had to do 3 revisions of, trying to find time for it amongst my other projects. I am definitely happier with how this version of it is turning out, but just when it appeared to be nearing completion I am thwarted by what seemed like noise or oscillation on the highest speeds, causing a little blurring of the trace, but what in fact turns out, after 2 weeks of digging, to be crosstalk that happens on the all-important channel switch LMH6574. I posted the issue on the TI forums as well -- if curious you can see it here
I have ordered an AD8174 to see if it is the IC or something in my layout. Either way I believe I am not too far from releasing v2!
Cheers - Ram
