Thumbs up! Including modern IO/s like USB and solid state memory cards

Cool Idea, combined with a replicated Apple, so that it fits in a 
smaller case. Wireless lan and a battery run time of 6-8h.

If we go for the above this would be a logical consequence.
Web browser, E-mail client, drivers etc.
With all that gear I fear the IIe will not make it

I have just started to be back on Apple II's since my "great" times back 
in the 80's.
I try to get back into 6502 assembler and hardware projects, so I would 
like to help as much as I can but I guess I need a couple of month to 
catch up with myself.(dammed real life,Job,responsibilities.... 
everything was much more relaxed in 1982 ,could spend days in front of 
my Apple ....now it is just 1-2h a WEEK.....OK I stop wining)

My current Hardware/Software project: E(e)prom burner card for Apple IIe.
