Well. I can't seem to find it, I did get mine as a demo from John, He sent
me a GIF of the circuit but i can't find that either. I don't think that he
decided to put them into production, but i do believe that if you asked him
he might send you the circuit. i'd like to take mine apart to see how he
free-formed it but i'm scared to. the whole thing fits into two 2x4 bricks.
if anyone wants the original thing i got for porting NQC to WindowsCE i can
send it to them. found it and it does include a workaround for using the
standard powered tower with the RS232S (or C?) port.
ask for it off list.
