Also, GITHUB has this page
struct toh_eeprom_entry toh_eeprom[] = {
{ TOH_EEPROM_VENDOR, 2, 0 },
{ TOH_EEPROM_PRODUCT, 2, 2 },
{ TOH_EEPROM_REV, 1, 4 },
{ TOH_EEPROM_EEPROM_SIZE, 2, 5 },
{ TOH_EEPROM_CFG_ADDR, 2, 7 },
{ TOH_EEPROM_CFG_SIZE, 2, 9 },
{ TOH_EEPROM_UDATA_ADDR, 2, 11 },
{ TOH_EEPROM_UDATA_SIZE, 2, 13 },
};

Well, 256 bytes don't hold very impressive images or sounds. that's for sure 
I'd imagine what you can put there is an URL that gets downloaded by the system when you insert the EEPROM, for example. Now you'd need to write up a daemon that gets kicked when an EEPROM of the signature you have gets inserted to I2C...

Since EEPROMS are very very easy to program, this is a very quick way to make your custom OH instantly very awesome!
Otherwise, how does read/write cycles in NFS tags and EEPROMs compare, when they are used to periodically store temporary data?

Remember that the VDD in toh is 3.3V, and I2C levels are 1.8V CMOS, so the EEPROM might not talk with you.

Although there are also a lot bigger EEPROMS, I think its power is in simple commands.

Anyway, the question was not 'if' but 'how'! What kind of commands could you put on there?

VinHIlow = VCCx0.7V (aka CMOS) and when VCC is 3.3V, means that SDA/SCL needs to be ~2.3V to make sure them to be high.

Okay, then i put an regulator in between that outputs 2 volt to the Vcc of the EEPROM, problem solved. At least for trial fase.

In recent developments, the qwerty-oh is upgraded with a 1.8V voltage regulator, which mean I will very probably also stick an EEPROM on there.
Has anyone -by chance- come by some EEPROM commands for Sailfish?

An eeprom is programmed by electric signals on designated addressbusses and will output whatever you put in their. Those instructions can then be used by microcontrollers, or TOH, interpreting the output.

But, since I am an extreme hardware guy (and a little low on software knowlegde), what to put on them??
Howto:
-download a picture and set it as ambiance?
-download and install a program?
-change settings?
-start a daemon?
Also, they are dirt-cheap.
