I just got the latest newsletter from Gadgets By Small announcing the GCR.
It is a cartridge that REPLACES any current Spectre cartridge you may have.  Simply move your ROMs.
What it does is allow you to read and write Mac format disks at full speed.  (Those of you with Data Pacific's
Translator box know it works but v e r y  s l o w l y.)

Current retail price is $299 however for current Spectre owners a $100 refund
will be made upon returning your original cartridge and disk.
They are taking orders now with a $50 deposit, but the product is not 
expected to ship until August 1st.

Disclaimer:  I am in know way connected with Gadgets By Small or Dave Small except that
             I have the Spectre and think it's a great product.

I will be upgrading to the GCR and will have a Translator One for sale shortly thereafter.
