That is, chips from Potato Semiconductor?

I heard about these guys a couple years ago. Just checked, and their
US office still seems to be someone's house in San Jose and they are
selling their chips direct on Ebay.
Just wackiness or the new way of doing business?
I'm tempted to get a couple of their chips just to play with them, although
I'm not sure I have the capabilities to push them to their limits, if they
meet their datasheet specs.
