[Coco] Xbee wireless module for the wireless pak?

[Roger Taylor]

Here's a wireless modem module that looks to be pin compatible with 
the EB301's bottom row.  In fact, they show the same USB cable hooked 
to it that A7 used to show hooked to the EB301.  The pins match and 
the Xbee module is 5v tolerant if I'm reading the page right.

I'll have to find the measurements first to see if it will fit in the 
wireless pak case and find out how the PC picks up the signal and 
maps to a COM port.  The AT command set stuff should be as simple as 
the EB301's similar command set, meaning that I can add support in 
the CoCoNet ROM with no trouble at all.  Basically all the EB301 code 
does is ask for the broadcasted bluetooth addresses and connects to 
the first one in the list.  If the Xbee module operates in a similar 
fashion, this could be the continuation of the wireless paks.

P.S. I haven't seen a price tag yet.
