ZX Spectrum Next speaks QL

[tofro]

I thought the N-go had the keyboard map/layout set for the Next keyboard! Thank you for the info and pictures

It actually (just like the next itself) supports both the old 48k and the extended Next keyboard. (and PS/2, if you want)

Excellent!

There was a QL core for SpectrumNEXT but it seems it stopped development?

Did you actually read the first message in this thread? The QL core for the Spectrum Next is supposed to be released November 23rd.

I did not since it wasnt displayed when one opens a thread.

Looks really nice by promised feature list, and I hope it will work.
I only doubt how NEXT kbd built on ZX128 map will handle QL keyboard that has many extra keys

So far core wasnt public and was accesible only by Patreon support.

New official KS2 cores: Sinclair QL

The long awaited extra cores for your KS2 (and KS1) Next are finally a reality! Starting with breaking news on the Sinclair QL cores running on the Spectrum Next: They are ready. Yes, you read it right, your Next can now run as a QL with full compatibility, performing as an accelerated QL featuring a 68030 processor running at 56MHz – a beast of a QL. [...]

The team will release the core at Crash on November 23rd.

Any news about this? Waiting anxiously.....

Who says that? Does not really sound like Tobias himself

The QL core for the Spectrum Next is supposed to be released November 23rd.

That would be today. Any idea where to look?

If it does arrive today, it would be the first Next thing that was ever on time

[Peter]

Would be nice to at least know where to look, and who made the announcement.
Very hard to believe the 68030 processor. More likely, they just used the TG68K.C FPGA core.

That was a text I quoted from one of the Kickstarter team's update messages, and then was quoted out of context, see initial message.

@napsternds: They have still like four hours. But I wouldn't hold my breath that long, that could cause an unhealthy skin color......
Could it be you're a bit impatient?
