No, and there won't ever be one. The problem is that a Sun or PC uses
MFM as the low-level format of the disks, whereas a //c uses GCR.
Since a //c has no slots, you can't just plug a BlueDisk in and thusly
have MFM capacity.

I recommend buying ProTerm 3.1 and transferring the files via modem
or direct serial link.
