The latest Radio Shack catalog (1985, just came out) lists some new hardware goodies for the Coco. One is a combination speech and music (or at least "sound") synthesizer plug-in pack, may contain both a Votrax and a music chip. Another is a new plug-n-power interface. Best of all (?) is a Koala pad, with what look like two mouse buttons, for only $60. If this beast really gives full 256-pixel resolution (not the joystick ports), it is a worthy successor to the X-Pad. Anyone see this stuff yet? mike k
