I dont participate as much as I would like, but I may be of help on this one.
I'm a professional PCB guy, and can show you all how to get this fabricated.
There are a number of shops in our trade magazines that offer some pretty low cost (double
and 4 layer) PCBs
What do we have to start with, some gerber files?
Or really going out on a limb, the entire design file in PADS, or Orcad?

Just the PCBs. The rest of the parts seem easily available in one-offs.
In particular, I presume the LCDs can be cannibalized from 33xx series
phones.

A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.
Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail? So, it seems to me that there is a decently
sizable demand for 1541-III
parts. I asked the creator of this thing if he plans to make PCBs any
time soon. He said "no". But he left all the design files, firmware, etc
on his website for anyone to use. So, how about a group buy?
Funny you should mention that, I was wondering if it would be worth
while to do something like this yesterday, but didn't have the time
to post anything about it (too busy hacking one of my real 1541's).
Are you thinking of simply a group buy on the PCB's, or on the parts
as well?
