The SerialBlaster might just work with the TS-7260. I haven't tried it, as I 
don't have a TS-7260. But I think the TS-7260 is backwards compatible with 
the TS-7250. I can't find schematics for the TS-7260, so I don't know if they 
changed anything. 

The TS-7260 has a MAX II CPLD that has 1KB built-in EEPROM. If TS is using 
this built-in EEPROM to boot the system the SerialBlaster cannot restore it.

Its good to hear someone is using the SerialBlaster. Maybe I should make some 
updates!

Anyone else using it?

-Curtis.
