You can't... the Springboard interface cannot support more than one module at a time.

Some company was working on a 3 slot module, with software to switch between the 3 Springboards. You can only use 1 module at a time. I haven't heard much since the initial reports, so I doubt it will ever be produced.

Hi JohnKes,

Thanks for your reply. Do you know the contact of that company?

Red face cool idea/too expensive

i read the links, I like the idea... however the price, $200+ dollars, ouch!!!

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy two addtional visor handhelds on eBay and duct tape all three visors together with their different springboard modules(I assume everyone here already owns one visor) and using the infra-red ports allow all three visors to communicate!!!!!!!

Eric, you have stumbled upon one of the fatal flaws of the Springboard industry....when the module costs more than the device has it ceased being a good idea?
