CASSIOPEI
*************************************

Finally the brilliant Cassiopei
device now supports the VIC-20 with a
memory expansion. For more
information head over to the website

WHAT IS IT?

The Cassiopei, is a cassette port
based device. It can load PRG files
50 times faster then the standard
tape protocol and more importantly it
can work on all 8-bit cassette port
equipped Commodore computers. You
plug it in, type LOAD on your CBM and
press the menu button. The menu is
loaded and shows you all available
programs on the device, simply choose
one from that menu and it starts
automatically, very easy. No fast
forward, rewind or those annoying
load errors.

The device has 8MByte of internal
flash memory to which you can add
.PRG files or .TAP files. It does not
support .D64 and does not emulate a
disk drive.
