    So was there ever a apple II USB card at kfest like a2central said, or
    was that just a hoax?

    No hoax. She was soldering many together there, and we had several
    programmers working on it and coming out every now and then reporting the latest successes. It was cool!

    Jeri did add more features to the card besides just USB though. Perhaps
    it's premature to comment on those though. B-{)

    Hoax? No proof of that but perhaps Ms. Ellsworth should be
    completing work on her C-One board before tackling new projects. She
    probably means well but it's beginning to look as if she's really good
    at creating vaporware.

    She demonstrated the C-One while she was at KFest. It appeared to me that
    the board WAS complete.

    It's up to the programmers now, as far as I can tell. She's definitely
    more the hardware person than software.
