[TI-H] Re: AM radio
The AM module can be used to set the calculator up as a bi-directional
X10 device. This means it can be used to control other X10 devices,
such as lights, and it can also receive commands from the computer or
X10 remote. Using extended X10 commands the calc could send and
receive files to other calculators or the computer.
In X10 mode it would probably be too slow for games or other high
traffic networks, but for low traffic stuff it would work well.
And of course you don't have to use it in X10 mode, you can use
a different protocol to increase the data rate.
