Also once again - this first batch is closed for now (you had a little over 2 months to opt in). There _may_ be a second one some time in the future, as some people asked me for it already and me having ~80 InterWave chips left after the first batch if all goes more or less with the plan.
Therefore thanks to the following for making this project possible in one way or another:
alexanrs, alien^pdx, AlphaC, b_rros, Beegle, bristlehog, Chain-Q, CHiLL72, Crazysheriff, dogchainx, Dosenware, Dubinius, Enigma, FGB, Fire-Phoenix-Fire, GMBigB, hard1k, hyperborean, keropi, Kodai, kylix, Marmes, Matze79, nicetux, QBiN, ratfink, rique, sev80, struuunz, stynx, Synoptic, Toast_r, vetz, Wavetable, wbc, wollev45, x1541

@Stojke: Ask AMD/Gravis/Synergy/Philips/Reveal why they didn't socket the chip. I certainly won't because those sockets cost as much as the PCB itself - having no benefit other than users fiddling with the chips, preferably reseating them the wrong way and/or breaking off pins. If you're worried about fucking the IC and don't think you can do the rework (or find someone to do it for you) don't consider this project suited for you.
