Thank you. As a bonus, this will also prevent polarity inversion.

I'm a bit paranoid, so I would add a TVS diode and a fuse, and two ferrite
filters on the supply input, but none of them are strictly necessary...

I was going to ask that too, but since the goal was to reduce the costs, I
just asked for the expansion headers! :)

Anything else?

I still prefer the ARM over the PIC, especially if you are going for the SD
car slot! :) MBED FAT libraries are awesome.

SDFileSystem sd(p5, p6, p7, p8, "sd");
...
int main() {
    FILE *fp = fopen("/sd/sdtest.txt", "w");
    fprintf(fp, "12345678");
    fclose(fp);
}
