You mean the T/S 1000 or the T/S 2068? The 2068 is the not-quite-compatible
Spectrum derivative; the 1000 is essentially an NTSC ZX-81.

In Commodore 64-land we have RRNet and ip6502 (and a BASIC extension in the
form of Kipper BASIC). Others are using hardware TCP stacks too such as
Comet64 and the Lantronix UDS-10 series.
