After a lot of work the replica 1 SE is now ready for sale and we are now taking orders. The serial interface is now built on with the USB converter as an option. Please see the replica 1 website for more information or to place your order. There are 50 available then I will evaluate the demand for more.
Cheers,
Vince
Wow, I hadn't noticed the powered by the USB bus option before. That means you could build a single cable Replica. I'm guessing that would also be a feature to allow something like the Altair PC to be done with the Replica 1 SE?
