I read the "technical specifications" that I've found. None of them say anything about interrupt support one way or the other.

I'm a little uneasy about this news. If there aren't any interrupts, how will it be possible to do control loops that depend on doing measurements and computations at precise intervals? How can even a simple speedometer function be implemented? I'm guessing -- I'm hoping -- that what you mean by "no interrupts supported" is not the same thing as what I'm thinking of.
