Hi all,

The I-PAC interface is now programmable. All key codes can be programmed and stored in EEPROM which keeps the settings after power-off. All keys can have a shift function code assigned and you can also select which input is the shift key.
The programming is done by software written by Rob Palmqvist, a regular contributor to this board, and he's made a great job of it! Thanks Rob! It runs in DOS or Windows, in GUI mode or text, and also in automated batch mode for on-the-fly loading. Programming works in keyboard or USB interface mode.
All new I-PACs sent out as of today will be the programmable version and there will be an upgrade for older boards. There is no price increase, still $39.
I have just updated my site: www.spaceinvaders.uk.com
BTW if anyone has any problems accessing this site, ie have to hit "refresh" please let me know. I'm not sure what caused those recent probs but hope all is OK now.
