1MB chip on board, clock on board, "trapdoor" expandable to 2MB chip
with an A501+ (as a501's and clones DONT work in the A501+), WB2.04 in
ROM, the new chip set (yeah - 640x256 in 16 colours on WB), 2 extra
keys if you buy the international version (1 between left shift & Z,
the other between ' and return (a cut down return key))

About pricing, dunno what it'll be, but the machines should be just as
cheap, or cheaper for C= to make, so just wait & see...
