Has anyone made a wireless link for the calculator? If so I am going to buy it otherwise I might work on learning the skills to try my own.
The only wireless link so far is the wifi module by kerm, it requires the calcnet protocol, though, which smash doesn't use iirc.

Ugh, is there any chance of this being a possibility?
Is this a remote possibility? : http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Infrared-transmitter-for-iPhone-iPod/ (http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Infrared-transmitter-for-iPhone-iPod/)

Seing it's been discussed about on and off since years in the community and not until a few weeks ago kerm published his wifi link i doubt that something like this would happen, sorry
EDIT: Of course you could in theory hook something up to the IO port that transmits/receives everything wireless at a high enough speed, though
EDIT2: The wifi link for the calc-net protocol i was talking about can be found here: http://www.cemetech.net/projects/item.php?id=52

Yeah that's what I was thinking of, would infrared be theoretically fast enough?

The thing with infrared is that you'd need to point the calcs at each other, like you need to point your TV remote at your TV

That would be OK with me as a temporary solution, are there any other ways that you can think of to do so?
-
Any other way for wireless transmission, like bluetooth or something else. Actually, IIRC assemblybandit once worte a bluetooth chat program. But then again the speed must be great enough for smash to work.

Thanks, right now I'm going to try for an infrared one. I'll post my results when I'm done.

Looking forward to your results :)

Infrared link cables were done all the way back in 2000 on the TI-85 IIRC.

That used USB though so it won't work with SSBO since it uses the IO port. I think a hardware solution should be easy enough to implement.

Oh, right, he wrote his own communication with the bluetooth dongle
