The trick here is to try not to do too much in the "satelite".

Good point; should be cast in iron and exhibited in the 8052.com's entrance hall.

I'd suggest we'd try to make here one of these as an open project. Volunteers?

re Roll your own
I doubt you can find enough FPAG/CPLD horsepower to make a remote UART for a price of less than double that of a small LPC that can do the very same - sorry Jez.

Sure; moreover I doubt a reasonable UART would fit into any CPLD (Jez will correct me with figures on registers usage etc.) I think Andy meant the case you have the fat FPGA there anyway.
