The Annex-II did the same, and was big too. Can't say I liked it.

The Annex-III was quite nice. Much smaller than the Annex-II, and had
onboard flash for booting, atleast the ones I've been in contact with.
They were wonderful little critters that made working with terminals
much easier. Some years ago I was trying very hard to get hold onto one,
but I never got that close to actually get one. Today is a different
story...
