I'd like to add that his might be the really hard task, i.e. finding an 
address space which is not preoccupied by some more or less widely used 
peripheral.

MIDI interfaces ($de04-$de07 or $de00-$de03, depending on the 
"religion"), the REU itself, IDE interface, CMD devices, cartridges 
(FC3, AR6, ...) come to my mind.
