Vaughan Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 ps: I'm pretty sure I'd take the "Atari" name out given their issues lately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiv Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 (edited) Not sure if you're still looking at the case that was shown in post 18, but if so... I noticed the neat sticker with the dip switch settings on the inside of the case. Nice little plus.. But I also noticed that if I were to cut/dremel out a rectangle in the case to get access to the dip switches without having to open the case, I'd be cutting that nice sticker.... Assuming that's the case and a sticker is included, maybe don't stick the sticker in place so we can place it ourselves?? Just a hint.. Looking forward to this for both my Vec and 7800. I agree with the name issue. Now, I did use 2600 (Actually, I changed that to 7800, as I don't actually have a 2600 ), which is technically also trademarked, but when Intel went to trademark i586, the trademark office said NO, you can't trademark numbers.. So I'm guessing that 2600 is probably a bit more safe and that trademark might not be enforceable... So, VecVox2600? :-) desiv Edited September 4, 2011 by desiv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleman jack Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 I'm hoping to get one of these as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 (edited) This is relevant to my interests as well. Not so much the speech feature as much as the save game RAM. That would be enough to take my RPG idea off the back burner Oh, and I voted "Don't care" as the person developing a BASIC for Vectrex hasn't produced anything downloadable yet..

Richard H. Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 So, VecVox2600? :-) Sounds OK. Shame Nathan's label won't be able to be used anymore. We could do a post for other name suggestions. Assuming that's the case and a sticker is included Perhaps the case sticker could incorporate the DIP settings too.

iesposta Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Since SpiceWare removed digitized sound from Frantic , and since I can also use it on my Vectrex , me want, me want AtariVox rev2... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raindog Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I'd get one of these too, if the new version is going to support the Vectrex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the.golden.ax Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Still no word from Mos. Richard sent me all the data, and the boards can be made again. I'll never do another presale project again, simply put (I still have to finish the last one) but if someone wanted to be the sugar daddy on getting the parts paid for and sent to me, they can get the kick back of their investment on the sales. Building them isn't the problem at this point. Having the parts is the problem. AX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GroovyBee Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 What parts do you need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.golden.ax Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 #1 boards. I have the file from Richard in Eagle .brd format. Second are the speakjet chips. Most of the other stuff, caps, resistors, sockets, and dipswitch, I can get on credit through Mouser if they stock it. I've not dealt with digitkey (not sure if they offer net terms).

GroovyBee Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 PCBs aren't a problem. What is the part number for the SpeakJet chip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevEng Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 PCBs aren't a problem. What is the part number for the SpeakJet chip? Magnevation never gave it a part number... I'm pretty sure it's just a PIC with a custom program, rather than custom silicon. $25 per unit in small quantities is typical. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
