According to the German Heise Newsticker, Metabox is unable to pay its bills. Metabox stellt Insolvenzantrag (Links to German content). A contributor in the Heise forums reminded that Metabox had once presented a PPC card for the A1200, but never completed/shipped. Here's more coverage, via Yahoo: "Metabox, a Hildesheim, Germany-based maker of set-top boxes for digital TV, has declared insolvency, a move equivalent to filing for bankruptcy protection." Metabox stock, once at a high of 42€, plummeted almost 50% to 0.68€ after the announcement. More interesting details: Founder and CEO Stefan Domeyer owns 9.02% of all shares, Dave Haynie 1.31%, Andy Finkel 1.28%. I'm not sure if that's IPO information, or up-to-date

Other World Computing was selling off the remainder of their G3 & G4 CPU
upgrades. After the product is all gone, I'm not sure what will they have
up their sleaves. Their USA web site is mostly stuff about set top boxes.
It's kind of a pitty in that I think some of the people down in Austin were
pretty helpful when I had questions. The CPU upgrade seems to be working fine,
