    Hey Benny!

    The bluetooth keyboard still hasn't arrived so I thought I'd play with what I have working so far.

    Looks good from this angle. :-)

    Life is good,
    Maurice

    Hallo Benny!

    you will love it when it comes,

    We'll soon see ... I hope.

    If that is the case I'll just use the virtual one in termux. I am trying to keep everything compact and potentially on the go. I use it to test my wireless hosts so it needs to be mobile so I can find and hopefully fix dead spots around the neighbourhood. A cabled keyboard will get in the way. Also the keyboard I ordered comes in a case that allows the tablet to fit into and look like a tiny laptop. Also, also, there is only one usb connector on the tablet which I use for other things such as power and external drives etc.

    Anyhow as you saw it does work and the two msgs I sent both went out wirelessly via the custom binkd I built for it, which means I should be able to connect to the fidonet node here from anywhere in the world. I could also set up the Europoint's binkd to accept msgs from it but I don't really need to do that.

    Het leven is goed,
    Maurice
