In the latest issue of gamesTM, page 20, there is an article on the
Raspberry Pi which is basically a £20 pc.
This device is the size of a USB memory stick, has a USB port one end
an a HDMI the other. The provisional specs are
decent enough, a 700Mhz ARM11 , 256MB SDRAM, OpenGL ES 2.0, 1080p30

Rich Mellor about a Z88 forum posting, concerning a serial bluetooth
unit being developed for a Z88 by a user who also has a QL and hopes
to add one to his QL.
This would be of interest to me, so I could connect my phone to
