    Someone even hacked these to 8G but that required reballing a 200 pad chip.

      I've read about that. The most difficult soldering I've ever done was swapping an ATMega 2560 chip between two boards with a very basic hot air station, and that one still doesn't work right (but it works well enough to be useful). Hacks like this are very impressive.

        The QFP or the BGA version? Either way, that's already pretty impressive to me, I probably couldn't do it. The best I've done so far on that front is fixing a board that had a layout error which caused the pads of a USB connector to be offset by bridging the gap with individual strands of copper. I also hope to never have to do something like that again :)
