It seems that most of you think that this is the simplest solution. In
fact I think that too :).

So I'm going to change the order of my "tries" and put this one as a
first try.

If I understand right, a general algorithm could be:

1 - Latch the STROBE line
2 - lock the sender (manipulating ACK and BUSY signals)
3 - read the data lines
4 - free STROBE line
5 - unlock sender

What do you think? It seems right isn't it?
