Hi Ray,
When I did the first run of NADSBoxes in 2008 / 2009 timeframe, my
up-front cash expenditure was $13K for 240 NADSBoxes. This is when I
was having them built and assembled in China. I probably still could
have them built and assembled there, though it is a bit more challenging
since I no longer live there.
Turns out I am traveling to China next week and will be visiting
Shenzhen for 5 days! YEA!!! Maybe I could visit my old haunts while
there (in fact I am looking forward to it).
One of the concerns with NADSBox is that I need to update the layout a
bit to select a different SD card socket ... the socket used in the last
round of NADSBoxes was acquired from a Chinese source with no real part
number or way to track it. So the footprint is specific to that part
which is no longer available.
I am working actively on Woolly which would replace REX and in a way,
NADSBox, via TPDD access to a host via WiFi. But this is still a big
development effort, both in terms of hardware and software.
If you still wanted to put up the cash after reading this, we probably
wouldn't need to build 240 NADSBoxes as demand isn't what it was in
2009, but it would still be in the $8K - $9K range I would guess for
NADSBox alone. I don't know for REX.

I'm willing to put up the cash necessary if Ken & Stephen would be
willing to do another run of NADS & REX.

Hi All,
Just got a Model 100 off of eBay. If I'd known of the Club 100
site, I'd have purchased one there. There's some yellow on this
one, but the memory appears maxed out (installed internally), so
wasn't a bad find overall.
I've used a color computer 2 for years, and love it, and decided
to try out the Model 100. Love it so far.
From the Club 100 site, I saw that there used to be NADSBox's
available as well as REX modules.
I'm emailing to find out if it's still possible to purchase these?
I'm also trying to track down the little legs that can prop up the
Model 100.
I'd really appreciate any help anyone can provide. I didn't want
to try ordering from the Club 100 site, because I wanted a
confirmation before I did.
thanks,
Robert
