Maybe, and I've mentioned this in a previous blog comment.
There is a chance the 50MHz and 100MHz model front ends are identical except 
for maybe some different value parts on the 50MHz model to limit the 
bandwidth.
Would be interesting to see both circuits side-by-side.
Given that both sample at 1GS/s and everything else is indentical too, 
modding the 50MHz unit might just be possible.

Dave.
