Hi Roy, I'm glad to see you got this project working so quickly. I'll probably
buy one in the future, but at this point I'm especially interested in your use
of the cassette interface to control the I2C bus... seems like we could use
that to quickly and cheaply add a Real-Time clock to our CoCo's with little
more than a casette cable. Cool.

If there is any shortage of cassette cables, I can make brand new ones. I can
also offer custom floppy and other I/O cables.

cheers,
Bob Emery
