we certainly can make it happen, we'll just have to make sure there is demand
for the configuration, and i'll have to make sure that the lure isn't too big. i
certainly don't expect it to fit in the same size lure footprint as the Flotsam
or Jetsam Lures, it will have to be somewhat larger to accommodate the two
ethernet jacks...
