Also, another thing to think about:
How many crypto checking devices do you need? If your motherboard already comes with one, why not trust / rely on it once for all device firmware? I realize silicon folks want to sell you kitchen sinks with granite counter tops included, but if working on spiffy open designs, I figure having the freedom to trust / rely on some other device's components might yield pretty cheap and flexible solutions.
