I'm only supposed to reveal some of this secret presentation that we will have for the April 15-16 Commodore Los Angeles Super Show 2023. Richard Goedeken, Commodore and Amiga enthusiast says, "I'll have a C128 running a terminal program, communicating over an RS232 port with an embedded computer called an ESP32 running on a tiny circuit board powered by a lithium-ion battery. The ESP32 is running custom software that I wrote, which connects to the internet via an 802.11n wireless network which will be hosted by my cell phone, and bridged to the T-mobile 5G wireless network. The ESP32 presents a simple chat interface to the C128 user over the serial port, whereby queries are collected from the user and transmitted to…[the secret hottest technology]...”
More information will be revealed when the presentation is made at CLASS 2023. 
Sincerely, Robert Bernardo |

Interesting, but not sure what it all means. Is this a device that gives the C128 easy access to WiFi network?

I, for one, welcome my new C128-based overlords.

I know my opinion is biased, but today's tech just doesn't have the same level of class and style of my great one twenty eight. So, yeah, welcome C128 overlords! LOL!

The other night I was in a zoom chat with Richard. It looks as if he has everything ready to go.

Yup, video to come soon! And Richard has interesting things to say using terminal programs on the C128 and on a Tandy 1000 in order to connect to ChatGPT.
