I was wondering if the BlueM I use with my M100 could be adapted to work
with an old DOS laptop? I might get a second one if that's the case...
would be nice if it had a 9 pin instead of 25 pin, though, to save
adapters sticking out.
In my closet I've got this old serial port to ethernet BNC adapter
(10mbit... it's ancient). It immediately got me to wondering if the
thing could be adapted to work with my M100. Not that I need it, with my
BlueM. But my brain works that way.
I really need to get back to work on getting my BlueM-M100 talking to my
Android devices; I just don't have the time. I need to study the Virtual
T source, I guess, to figure out how to emulate a TPDD device... in this
case under Android.
My perfect solution is to use my phone as both a storage medium and
internet proxy, with additional capability of using my M100 as a
bluetooth keyboard.
Does anybody know if any of the DOSBox for Android apps can emulate PC
serial ports via bluetooth? Because then we could run Desklink in DOSBox
on an Android phone.
Another question; could an M100 be connected via RS232 to a USB port on
a PC or Android device (via serial-to-usb cable, and in Android's case,
OTG adapter, I guess) and communicate? In some instances this might be
convenient, like when using the M100 as a keyboard for my Android tablet.
I wish the printer port was bi-directional... but I'm rambling now...
