Pardon my ignorance, but I'm *very* interested in the Woolly... internal 
wifi, on-board storage, this is something I've really wanted for my 
M100. A faster screen refresh is the only other thing (cause my focus is 
always on games & graphics... never grew up I guess).

Will the Woolly also have the capability of storing ROMs like the Rex 
does? I was anxiously waiting for the Rex 5 (4?) for the addition of 
on-board storage, and I'd hate to have to give up being able to load, 
say, the Ultimate ROM II.

I also don't understand the benefits of the FPGA. I'm not criticizing 
it; I know it's a Field Programmable Gate Array, and I know it's been 
used to make "virtual" C64s and Amiga 500s, but could someone tell me 
the implications of having the FPGA? What could be done with it in the 
context of the Model T? Again, this is ignorance, not criticism.

Could someone use it to create a sort-of memory management unit? Or is 
that what it's already for?

Semi-off topic, but the memory management thing made me remember: could 
a program implement a jump table storing the offsets from the 
start-of-program to the various routines and data, and then calculate 
the jumps/branches based on the start-of-program, wherever the program 
was loaded? Would this allow for relocatable code? (I think I've asked 
this before, but I can't remember...)

One last question... how much is the Woolly likely to cost, roughly? I'm 
only asking so I know how much to tighten my belt to start saving up for 
one. If I have to choose between a Nadsbox and a Rex 5, or the Woolly... 
I vote Woolly...
