C64 DTV possible new version with game download capability?

[Darrin]

I bought a C64DTV and would quite happily have paid double the price or more if the unit had a PS2 port for attaching a PC keyboard, a socket to add a second joystick and an SD card slot so I could add my own games.  Oh, and most of all, somewhere to plug a power supply in so I wouldn't have to keep running it on AA batteries.

You are aware that you can easily add the PS2 port for the keyboard, and easily bypass the batteries by soldering on a jack for a power adaptor (same voltage as batteries would supply), right?

The PAL version of the C64DTV does come with 2MBs of flashable built in memory.  Not quite an SD card but pretty good.

Some people have figured out how to hack on a second joystick port.  You'd have to do some web-searching.  I don't know how "hackish" this last mod is.

Thanks for that info.  I've seena few hacked C64DTVs, but people like me should be banned from owning soldering irons.  Besides, I'd like professional built unit in a neat case, not one of my bodge jobs.   :-D

Thanks.  Yep, it's a nice geek device, but what 'm looking for is something between that and the C64DTV and I'm sure that such an item could be marketed to mass consumers.
