Lallafa’s DTV2Ser v0.4 Released!

September 29th, 2008 No comments

Dtv2ser is a small hardware device that bridges TLR’s dtvtrans protocol used to communicate with a DTV via a RS232 interface to your Mac or PC.

By using a serial-to-USB adapter the dtv2ser provides dtvtrans access for all modern PCs where the original dtvtrans parallel cable cannot be used.

The new dtv2ser+usb board directly integrates the USB adapter and realizes the full dtv2ser functionality on a USB-stick-like device.

No, your eyes are deceiving you.

Commodore (as in Commdore Vic 20,C-64, Amiga) is bringing a Netbook to market. The UMMD 8010/F Netbook was shown off at IDF in Berlin.

The specs sound familar to those following the scene

- 10 inch screen
- Webcamera
- 1.6Ghz C7–M CPU
- 80GB HD
- 1GB of RAM
- WiFi
- Bluetooth optional

The price is a bit on the high side for NetBooks at around $600. Maybe they are counting on a wave of nostalgia buying.

Thanks to Leo Sexad for the news.
