Since 3V3 will support TTL levels (0 < .8V, H>2.0V, or maybe it's 
2.4V...) it seems to work fine.  EasyFlash3 uses the same IC, and no 
level shifters, and works fine (well, except for one revision of the 64 
mobo that drives RESET via a 555 without a current limiting resistor, 
meaning drivng reset from the expansion port requires a switch or 
something that can overpower the 555, but that's not a 3V3 IC's issue).
