Coordless calc connection

Me and my friend have been working on making the calc wireless...and it is actually coming along nicely. We just have to put the card inside the calc which will be difficult obviously and then we have to run it. If this works I will send free instructions to all on this forum of how to make the calc coordless and give you the inc files you need.

PS. All programs must eb in assembly...sorry :(

Nice, may i ask what technology it uses for wireless transfer? There has been an infrared link cable around in the past.

eb? I guess you mean be... So all the programs on your calc have to be basic? Or you mean all the programs you can send?

You could use BlueTooth I guess. It doesn't use much energy and is small enough to be incorporated inside the casing.

Well actually we are trying to use bluetooth for this.

All the programs can be in any language actually cuz we fixed the error we think. The main reason we are making this is so we can cheat on tests :twisted: :twisted: . jk. We want to be able to make mmrpg but that is going to be friekin hard in my opinion, but we will try to get it done.

P.S. This will be open source to you guys if we can do this :D

Would it replace the normal link port, or is there enough room inside the calc?

if u make it, u might want to show how to do both. ive actually looked into this a little, not too seriously. but for the people who are too lazy to buy cases or want to cheat, show the internal and for the good kids show how to make an external attachment.

is there a way to make a split link port? after seeing you work on this, i think ill give up on it myself and work on my speakers, so is there a way to transmit stuff to half and play multiplayer through the other half? wait, that would probably overload its 4 mhz proccessor...
