¡¡Awesome!! A dream come true. I definitely want one.

The level of integration and how small the board is is amazing.

Congratulations, Peter, and everyone who participated in the development.

This looks an amazing achievement, well done!

Obviously I'd love to be added to the queue for one, but as a 24/7 carer (and therefore have very limited time for my hobby) others will make much better use of it than I'll be able to for now

So, if possible, could I be in the queue for one once everyone else who wants one has one please?

Many thanks
Tony

Excellent development - I would also like to pledge my interest in this - but as there is no list - I will await it's launch. My passport needs renewing by June, so given the new rules, I won't be able to attend either, but I wish you all well in the conference in Germany and a very happy time!

What an amazing achievement.
I have a project going live around then and so cannot travel to the show to see this, but would also like to have myself added to the waiting list once there is one.

Please make a video of the big reveal :)

Wow, that looks great. Like a QL compute module (conjures up a few ideas) :)

An simple internal DIN41612 to ROMport connector board might be useful :idea:

You may have noticed 2 x 2 extra pins in addition to the QL ROM port (the smaller ones near to the edge).
One of them is leading QLNET and one is a "detection" pin.
The other two could be used with such a connector board. Possibly one as R/W and one as a chip select.

Thanks Peter, for the announcement.
After all the months of work it is really awesome to read all the positive comments from the community, thanks! We still have some work to complete to be ready for the QL – event in Dormagen. But I am rather confident that we will finish in time and that we will have some QIMSI Golds ready for you. I am really excited to meet many of you in person first time.

I understand the request of a waiting list, similar to the one for QIMSI. As we have announced the QIMSI Gold earlier, and we still in preparation for the event, kindly be a little bit patient. I have noted all names of potential interests, rose their hands in this thread, into a list. So, we will come back to you.

Enjoy the weekend and happy QLing.

Stephan

Hi Peter,

I no longer have any original QLs, but if I did have one, this new board would be top of my list of "things to buy next"!

Sounds like a dream board. Well done.


Cheers,
Norm.
