This one looks very cool indeed - wonder if the price is going to come down?  Tomshardware was talking about $9.99 on ebay, hopefully it'd come down to that level new?

40 bucks USD is a bit of a stretch for a toy.  I would love to get ahold of one of these but I'm in Australia - but I suspect shipping would be the killer however :(

Ah well, always got the real thing to tinker with I guess.

already been done - you can add a keyboard, 1541, etc to it.

The guy in the link above made an expansion that crammed everything into a 1541-II case.

I suspect it's just the tip of the iceberg - fun times ahead.

Any chance of someone getting a set of two for me and posting them over to Australia? Happy to kick in a few dollars for your trouble.

redrumloa: Yeah thanks but the 10 USD pricing each was more what I was after.  

USD 20 seems a bit much as they weigh 250g each. Even putting it at 750g brings it up to $14USD shipping.

So what I was looking at paying was 20 for the two items, 5 for someone's effort + 14 for shipping (it probably would only cost 10USD if under 500g) = 39 all up.

But yeah I suppose I can wait a little bit anyway - pal version is probably less hassle.
