Really only all that worthwhile if it contained an actual Amiga Floppy Drive, and not a PC Floppy Drive.  So we could actually use it in all it's multi-speed glory with real Ami disks.

Yea, my thoughts were along the lines of what amiman99 said.  It's still a PC FDD with a custom controller, but the drives in the Amiga were 'special'.   If I had to venture a guess it's probably part of the issue with reading copy protected disks.  

It'd really be worthwhile if I could take some of the games I purchased way back when, plug them in an be able to play them again.  But that isn't really what it is.
