In an attempt to gain further information regarding the release date of the AmiJoe I have been in contact with a variety of places. Read more below.
Blittersoft UK informed me that the units were ready and waiting on Haage & Partner (presumably for a license for the PPC 68k emulator+warpup). Bill Mc Ewen mentioned in a speech a short while back that they were working though with Met@box to lower the cost of the Amijoes to be around the 250$us or so mark by using as many standardized parts as possible. This still left the question of when it would come out so i then contacted met@box themselves, in which their international rep ("Susan") replied: "Please keep an eye on the website. I have no further info at present". Does anyone know anything more on this matter regarding its release?

AmiJoe / Met@Box : Comment 55 of 56 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Juan Carlos Marcos on 28-May-2000 22:00 GMT | I guess I should thank you all for your comments. The two times I've come back to read thios thread, the more information I found. It's a pity that there is some flame throwing, though. I suppose we'd all like to have a single, official solution, and a line of consistent products, instead of several half finished (or even, on ly half announced) projects. I have respect for each and every project that actually has WORKING PEOPLE on them, even if I get to know that the G3 cards are just an engineer's spare time effort. It's a pity, also, that everyone pushes for his own solution, many times stealing potential from someone else. I realized a long time ago just how small the Amiga market is, and have gotten used to it. May we prosper one day. Until then, I hope the best luck to each and every (incompatible) project, that's what the Amiga is about. |
