Was it Memotech? they made all sorts of addons for the

graphics cards, serial and parallel ports and RAM expansion up to, as
far as I can remember, 1Meg!!! BTW, is anyone interested in swapping any
UK Sinclair stuff for a TS1000 or TS2068. I'd love to get either of
these!
I have a number of catalogs from Gladstone Electronics which show Memotech
products, though none that offer memory expansion that large. They did offer
some impressive add-ons for the Timex-Sinclair though! One of the more
interesting things they list for Memotech is a real keyboard that plugs into
the expansion port, but doesn't inhibit it's use for other addons. Real
typewriter keys with atuo-repeat and it was buffered. It lists for $99.95.
Your offer for trade for UK stuff makes me wish I had picked up an extra
TS1000 a few months ago when I had the chance. I'd love to get my hands on
some of the things that are common in the UK but rarely seen over here.
