So, what was the consensus for a replacement RTC?
Re-reading the thread:
* DS1216 and DS1315 are compatible, but really expensive.
* They also use the "Phantom Clock" protocol, which Gene says can't be
used with code that uses IRQs.
* Most newer RTCs are I2C or SPI, both < $1.00, but they are not
compatible.
Is compatibility more important than cost, or did something else get
decided?
