Thanks, Vince. It reminded me that I already have a 5 port USB power
supply, 2 ports give 2.1A each. I've tried this with the HDMIPi with the
HDMIPi in one and Wispy in the other, and whilst the Pi has the 'flash'
symbol up suggesting not quite sufficient power, the whole system loads up
and runs fine. 

The reason my original message about HDMIPi from January doesn't figure in
your records is because I sent it from my PC address and not the one
registered for Bru-list... I can send it again if anyone else is interested
- I have forwarded it to Chris already.

Steve
