The same guy sells this

655wt_1139, I see a pattern here, this is not as impressive as the 20P
25$ 250Mg Computer you could fit inside a keyboard let alone the QL
black box. Seriously this device is designed to inspire young people
back to the fun of programming, something QL Users should look
seriously at, for re-configuring for SuperBasic, or even supporting
directly. One scenario when this device is available is that uQLx can
sit on top of Ubuntu and with a bit of work, far better would be to
have S*Basic  directly available at switch-on, anyone know how
feasible that would be? I have also been racking my brains as to what
I could do with multiple systems such as these inside the QL black
box. 
 
Thanks, Lee

Ahh so it's not really USB at all, it's PS/2 on a USB connector, which
is all that the mice with a 'usb to ps/2' converter are, they can just
detect which interface they are on and talk the apropreate protocol.

If this is the case I seem to remember seeing a circuit somewhere for
connecting a PS/2 mouse to an Atari/Amiga using one of the smaller PIC
microcontrolers.

I would hazzad a guess that someone has taken this and made a few
boards up and is selling them on ebay.

Cheers,

Phill.
