Possible to add an USB port to a ZX Spectrum? :confused:

should be nice to have instant access to all these 48k games found on http://www.worldofspectrum.org/

iBurst connectivity to remote sites was excellent today... no issues or hiccups.

I would actually be plausable, since iBurst is sooo slow that the ZX Spectrum will load the game in the same time it takes to download it. Maybe load a youtube vid on it :P

I don't think so, but I have heard of an IDE interface, and CompactFlash = IDE so you can probably fit all the Spectrum games ever made on a 4GB flash card.

Spectrum has built-in flash:
Code: 
10 FLASH 1 : PRINT "iBurst!" : GO TO 10
 
Huh? ZX Spectrums? I thought iBurst infrastructure and tech was outdated, maar hierdie is verregaande. Is this a water cooler or one of them old, hand-cranked washing machines?
 
@Dusk

see, there you go, being negative again. I was describing it as it is - ZX Spectrum - but all you see is the negative, a ZX-80. :whistle:
 
Upgrade on my oldie comp from salvage! :) Thanks to The_Librarian and Dusk, for that ZX Spectrum and iBurst modem. :D
IBM PC/XT, Intel 8088 16MHz, 640K RAM >>> IBM PC/AT, Intel 80286 20MHz, 656k RAM.
With modem, now I have one USB slot (Type B), one 10BASE-T and some Wi-Fi.

I remember, one person said: "I've assembled Pentium 4 from 1 sewing machine and 2 outdated Macs."
