The chameleon has a VIC emulator for when it's not plugged into a c64. It can use that.

If it can drive the 80 column chip in the c128 instead then you'll end up with a really powerful system.

You do know it won't work at all with your c128d?

Stock Expected: (overdue)

This is better than out of stock or T. B. A.
Amigakit is taking preorders for the chameleon 64. They expect to ship on Monday June 4.

Yes.

I also have a C64c.
There are so many things it can do. Not being able to use it with the c128d is a small price to pay.
