And I'm actually afraid that not the price will be a buzz-killer here - I don't think they can actually _deliver_.
The advertisement was *HUGE* (which is an understatement) and those "sold out" informations and "maybe you'd wait several months" say everything.
It looks very very bad from the customer side of a stick.

I'm hoping it'll support the colour modes from this as well but perhaps that is a bit too much to ask.

This could be added now with the displayroutine from MY ZX81-emulator. Although B&W, grpahics are possible.

Re: ZX Spectrum Next
They have nearly completed the shipping of the first Kickstarter ZX Spectrum Next machines (222 remaining, most being held up by the situation around the world due to COVID19 Corona virus).yerzmyey wrote: ↑Mon Mar 05, 2018 11:59 pmRetroTechie wrote: ↑Mon Feb 20, 2017 12:28 am the Spectrum Next would be a very attractive offer if they manage to hold the price down.

Once all units have been shipped, they are looking to produce a second batch - see the updates page.

Re: ZX Spectrum Next
I just saw a BBC news article about the Spectrum next.
That has the possibility of driving a large number of people to the second kick starter.
I've never owned a spectrum or really looked into them. And it caught my attention
