If you can use an I2c chip, then the Motorola MC68HC11E2 has 2k of EEPROM
and costs about 8-10 dollars. You can try contacting Motorola for samples
if you are a student I have heard they are free. You need a school
letterhead signed by a proffessor. Contact Tony P. at (512) 505-8836. If
you want to buy them, try contacting Newark Electronics.
If you are getting them free, you might try a higher end embedded
controller with loads of flash such as the MC68333 (68020 core processor:
you'll get data books with it).
