I would love to do that, but the flash is wire-bonded to the processor 
in a single package -
My nano-manipulators are on repair at the momen ;)

Tried that, but did not cure the whole problem: The chip reports read 
errors when accessing certain
addresses (above 0x1000000, i get that ominous 0x00080 reads...). I 
recieved another sample board,

the chip perfectly well... )
