Just got an email from Pavel Urbancik from the Czech Republic, pointing me to his website about the development of a serial interface for the ZX Spectrum which also is able to connect a Ethernet module to.

Some software is already available, so check out the info:

New DivIDE parts ordered 
Friday, October 23, 2009, 05:16 PM
Because of the continuing interest in the DivIDE interface (and I must also note that the PC Keyboard interface and K-Mouse are also selling well!), I ordered parts for 50 more DivIDE interfaces!

The first 25 must be ready in a week or three, and my experience is that always something goes wrong, so please be a little patient.

In the meantime I've put another DivIDE offer on eBay, for the remaining interfaces that are on stock now:
http://cgi.ebay.nl/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... 0423618129

Because of additional costs I had to make, I had to raise the prices a bit:
- DivIDE complete with 512MB card, adapter and cable: 45 GBP
- K-Mouse Interface: 32.50 GBP
- PC Keyboard Interface: 32.50 GBP
- K-Mouse + PC Keyboard Interface: 62.50 GBP
- DivIDE complete + K-Mouse Turbo interface: 75 GBP
- DivIDE complete + PC Keyboard Interface: 75 GBP
- DivIDE complete + K-Mouse Turbo (free mouse!) + PC Keyboard Interface: 105 GBP

Postage is still 8.5 GBP for Europe and 13 GBP for the rest of this little planet.

If you want to know the price in euro's, multiply the Pound amount by 1.10 please, or look up the eBay offers at your lokal eBay site: it will list the price in euro's.

To place an order directly without eBay, use the Contact Me form on the right of this weblog.
I prefer this, because it safes me money, and you can still use Paypal as safe payment method.

Wowsers!

Guys, please, please be gentle on me!

I received about 30 orders for interfaces in only a couple of weeks, and not all of them are ready yet!

I'm working my guts out to keep everyone happy, but what can I do about parts that need to be ordered because there aren't enough ;)

I thought I would need months to sell 25 DivIDE interfaces, but to be correct I only need a month ;)
So I'm going to buy more printed circuit boards tonight, but they need 3 weeks to arrive at lease :(

So, please, please be gentle! ;)
