Whats the cost of only the PCB ?

depending on how much I make around 20 euros. The more I let produce the cheaper they will be.
If there is enough interest price could drop to 15 euros a piece.

Evanson, I'll use my @lavabit mail account to reply to you from now on, ok? That's because I can't access gmail account from work. I've read your e-mail through cell phone. Do you have google talk?

Best Regards,

Hi Muffie, I tried replying to your lavabit email address but got an error message (unrouteable address)

I'm almost leaving my work. I'll reply to you @ night!!!

Maybe a strange idea, but how about a workshop on the next Bussum meeting where we'll all make these things together?
If people sign up in advance for the workshop, and pay for the parts in advance (which might even give a nice discount), and people bring their own cartridges and soldering irons we could have a nice workshop session where at the end you'll go home with your very own cartridge! How cool would that be?

I'm not that handy with electronics myself, but I would love to learn it in such a workshop!

im game!

if there is enough interest I can get more PCBs manufactured. No problem.

If I understand it right, you can switch between disk images using numeric pad.
What should I do if I have no numeric pad in my MSX ?
Use other keys, eject-rewrite-insert SD card, anything else ?

Not entirely true, switching images is via a small program called diskman. There you can select the disk number you want to 'load' by using number keys. Not specifically numeric pad.
The numeric pad is used when you want you have multiple disks spanned, so you need to access disk 2 or 3.

Erikie, I cannot run diskman while being in game (e.g. while playing SD Snatcher) when I have to switch to other disk.

for multi disk games you copy all disks into 1 big file and load that into the SD card. In game when you need to switch disks you press the key to load the next disk (the key that the games tells you) along with the [select] or [stop] key. After that you press the correct key for next image. That can be 1-9
In the description of sharksym it is stated to use the numeric keypad, I have not tried a machine without a numeric keypad. Maybe someone else can confirm it works also without numeric keypad machines?

Erikie,

The program for doing that is also open source? It should be easy to change that to function keys and/or regular number keys...
BTW! I'm still waiting for your e-mail!

How to (pre)order this nifty piece of hardware?

which version are you looking at?
you can get v1.0 of me, this is the slowest version but fast enough for disk images.
email address is somewhere higher up in this thread
