Hi Hiraghm,
Serial/UART baud rate: 115200 bps
That would be an issue in the Model 100 ... the UART can't run that
fast, and even if it could, the 8085 would never keep up with the data
rate. Nice little board though!

I came across this tiny little board on the Pine64 site, and I wonder...
PineNut Wifi/BLE board

this thing is about 1" by 2/3" (25 x 14mm), and as I understand it
provides wifi and bluetooth, via serial (TTL or UART, I think).
I think it could be mounted internally to the M100 (dunno about M102).
Maybe a 200, too.
IF one could connect it to the modem serial connection, one could then
theoretically use it to connect via wifi/bluetooth, and switch to the
external rs232 port, keeping its functionality, with a minimum of
"destruction" to the M100.
Or maybe, connect it to the barcode scanner, which, if possible for
regular comms with the module, would leave you able to use the rs232
and the wifi at the same time.
I'm interested in any opinions on this, because imo it could massively
improve the functionality of the M100 (yes, I know the same essential
thing is possible with some of the wifi-capable arduino boards, but
all I've seen of them are much larger than this).
