Lol... I just assumed that someone made parallel flash/ee with an spi/I2C
backdoor. Damm 40 pin devices with 35 NC pins.

And I thougt my idea to use an approach similar to the Dallas stealth clock
chips is warped ;)

These chips use magic read patterns to write to the clock chip, that is
installed in a ROM socket. In the same way, a flash chip could be
programmed, but of course you had to build a stealth controller on your own
to interface between the flash chip and the ROM socket ...
