Known Problems:

	When using the EPi-OSD, NaviCtrl and another Pc-Connection (direct or via wireless connections like bluetooth, WI232, WiFi and such) on the same wire there might be data collisions causing laggy screen updates, and in some hypothetical cases that are not scientifically proven, harm to the Atmega and other attached Hardware. So it is not recommended to use the stuff like that, altough some people are and not experiencing any problems at all.
