Crazy germans: Network card for Amiga Phoenix released
« on: April 20, 2008, 09:51:07 AM »
Hello,

because germany is such a boring rainy country, we are developing much hardware to have fun.  :idea:  :crazy:

Just want to inform you that after the Phoenix project (http://phoenix.a1k.org), after the PhoenixFE turboboard, after the Phoenix flickerfixer, after the Phoenix 8MB memory expansion and after the Phoenix-Buddha IDE controller now the Phoenix network card ready is. :)

Thank you to Andrew J Wilson for the Phoenix Board (a legend will never die!!!) and to George (http://www.gb97816.homepage.t-online.de) and Jens (http://www.jschoenfeld.com/) for all the additional hardware...

See there? Someone invents the Amiga and the Germans have something to do with their time. Idle hands and all that.   :idea:

10MBit Network Card based on XSurf3 with special Phoenix connector... Take a look in the phoenix a1k.org area. NO official statements will follow. Try to get one or not... :-)

So is this for sale?

You guys seem to be hardware genious in Germany, why not make an Amiga mobo and sell it. I am sure I could scrape together 20 people who wants to buy it  :-)

Soooo, any time left to make an A500 network card (+ workbench 1.x drivers) to fit in the expansion slot (and perhaps, if possible, with a pass-through)...
Or a remake of the CD32 FMV module?
Or an USB catweasel controller? (bit ugly, internal diskdrives using outside a computer case, but very useable to those who use laptops and so)

:puppy eyes:

No, most of the people are just developers.

Everything, partlist etc. is avaible on his homepage. So some people can come together and build such a board.

Check this thread. There are about 30 of us having boards made and making our own "Phoenix 2".

Who would be interested in a blank pcb for Georg Braun's new A1000 system (GB A1000)

Will this nic work for Phoenix 2 also? I beleive it should.

Georg is also working on a GFX card based on the PicassoII for the Phoenix systems.

100€ + shipping

No, because it is a X-Surf III with special connector.
No self-build project.
