While the article says it'll have an on-screen keyboard (like phones and
tablets I'd guess), it only hints that they are considering their options
for an external keyboard. For old Spectrum games, looks like it'll be good,
for retro computing or BASIC programming... we'll have to wait and see.

From what I gather, it won't be a PC as such... it will simply boot to a
standard spectrum screen, and allow you to run about 1,000 built in games
(likely stored on an SD card or similar). And download other spectrum games.
Sadly, and I think this is a huge mistake, it won't have a full
keyboard..... so even if it could run a QL emulator, it would be fairly
useless...

I don't know if this has already been mentioned on the ql-users list but
has anyone seen this new ZX Spectrum style PC under development. Would a
QL emulator run on this?
