Expansion option overlooked...
« on: September 08, 2004, 11:13:49 am »
Hello

It seems to me that we have overlooked an expansion option of our Zaurii, namely the sharp port.
Since this is (?) basically a serial interface it should be possible to attach some peripherals to it.
I know that GPS units (and other serial devices) can be attached via ZThinCable but couldn't we do
better than that? E.g., attach a card reader (or sth that can hold extra storage).

Any ideas?
C750 :: Switching between Angstrom and Debian armel :: SD Kingstron 2GB (ext3) :: SD Toshiba 512MB (ext3) :: CF Transcend 80x 1GB :: CF Lexar 4x 256MB :: Ambicom CF WiFi :: Targus CF Modem :: Brando solar charger

how slow...   you could use a serial camera interface.
Gorgeous C860, 256 Sandisk SD, 1Gig Pretec 40x CF, PDAIR leather case & the really cool retractable iPDA USB sync/charge cable. Powered by PDAXROM BETA 1.

My wish - to have a Command & Conquer style game on my Z! (FREECNC!!!) Simcity 2000 would also be great.
