Hello, I am new. I was wondering if anyone has tried a Nintendo DS. it has a touch screen, touch screen keyboard, up, down, left, right buttons, start and menu button. It also has an SD card slot. This would be nice if someone could put an TRS 80 Model 100 emulator or make use of this device. Just a suggestion.

Most of those may have expired, if not all. Just wondering how much would a 1:1 re-creation cost today. A group of Russians(?) reverse-engineered a Nintendo GBA, so anything is possible. The M100 keyboard and the display might be very difficult and expensive to get manufactured today. =========================================================== Maybe there is some hardware on EBAY or on the internet to build a modern TRS 80 Model 100, but call it the TRS 80 Model 2000. This would be a good project if it is possible to do. I am no programmer or engineer. But I love TANDY computer and especially the Model 100, Model 102 and Model 200 which run on 4 double AA batteries. These portable computer were ahead of their time.

I was looking into using some to replace a client's 4 line x 20 character non-graphic display of approximately the same size.
