Well, now that they know the problem to Spirit (Flash RAM doesn't like Mars, it seems), I'd think they'll take some precautions, and reprogram Opportunity to try and avoid the Flash RAM. Or at least have something ready to send over in case it does screw up.

In any case, congrats to everyone who helped on those projects (I guess this includes everyone from Colin to Dave to all the other scientists and engineers :-p), and hopefully both rovers will be up and running within the next two weeks :-).
