ANNOUNCEMENT:
I managed to use the TED to display genuine C64 style sprites. In fact the sprite control circuits from the VIC have always been existent in the TED, they were just disabled. But by rapid toggling of the test bit in NTSC mode it is possible to reactivate the circuit and actually display 8 sprites.
Disabling the sprite circuit was probably just a marketing ploy, very similar to the SMT feature in the Pentium4 today.
