FPGA - Spartan 3E board - FX2 connector

What the heck is this? It is a 100 pin expansion connector. Read more here: The 100 pin Hirose FX2 connector is available from Digilent for $4 each. I ordered 3 of them, $10 in postage was added, so they will each cost me $7. They arrived and I have them stashed in the box with the Spartan.

An interesting discovery when they arrived was that Digilent is in Taiwan.

Roaming on Ebay (actually looking at Digilent PMOD connectors), I ran across a Digilent FX2-BB breadboard for the FX2 and bought one for $25.
