Serial to Bluetooth

Post by RWAP »

A rather interesting post has appeared on the fairly new Z88 forums - a user has managed to get his Z88 working with a Serial to Bluetooth adaptor.

See http://www.rwapservices.co.uk/Z88/forum ... -t426.html

He needs some encouragement, as he says that he would also like to get this working on the QL !

Do you have an email address to contact him? I'd like to tell him how interested I'd be in Bluetooth for QL, but having no Z88 I don't want to subscribe to yet another forum! Alternatively, feel free to copy this message to the Z88 forum.
It's many years since I last had a Z88 but it was a great little computer - my first "laptop".

Are the new z88s in stock fully boxed etc? And any chance of a QL compatible bundle deal? :ugeek:

Yes the new Z88s in stock are fully boxed, as they were originally from 1989.

Alas I can't really offer a deal on them, as the stock doesn't belong to me, so I can't discount them!

Worth a try :) Which is the best setup for the QL? The transfer kit or link kit?

The Impex95 Transfer Kit, although lower cost is my favourite
