  Cartridge for the Commodore 64 that packs a punch

Not Linux related, but I've been trying trying recent (at least to me..) C-64 accessories:

I've tried the "Kung Fu Flash"- it's a software defined cartridge that is cheap- just a single STM32 and can do pretty much everything. I bought this because I'm trying to duplicate the developer experience I see on "8-bit show and tell"- it can emulate the "super snapshot", but not the REU. It's a really nice way to quickly try a lot of C-64 software and games.

I also have an SD2IEC: what I've learned is that it would have been useful to get a variant with an extra DIN socket. It's nice but I was never a fan of C-64's DOS and this reinforces it. To mount a D64 disk image you have to: OPEN1,8,15,"CD:MYIMAGE.D64":CLOSE1... yuck..

JiffyDOS (replacement ROM for the C-64) improves this (it's faster and includes a permanent DOS wedge), I bought one- it's on the way. I'm curious to try it with the real 1541 drive.
