I recently upgraded my 28S to a 48SX, and I have a couple of initial questions
about how compatible my 28S is with the 48SX:

--

Does the FAST program (listed below) that set the clock speed on the 28S work
for the 48SX?

<<
  RCLF
  4 STWS
  #Fh #FFF00h BAG
  STOF
>>

Of course, I'd use the recently posted POKE program for the 48SX, rather than
BAG, but is #FFF00h the correct offset to poke the #Fh, or am I stuck in slow
mode?  The 28S is quite a bit faster than the 48SX when the clock speed has
been increased like this.

--

Is it possible to somehow transfer my stuff on the 28S to the 48SX via the
infrared IO port?  Perhaps I could send my programs on the 28S to the infrared
port like I was printing to the printer, and read and translate the data on
the 48SX end back into normal program format?
