Supposedly the A500 Vampire will most likely work for A1000 too. A500 Vampire has already been shown working, but obviously since its currently being being tweaked, Vampire havent been tested (atleast publicly) on the A1000.

There is about a 3 week backlog.  When your emails come up to the top of the list in a few weeks, Kipper2k will email you to let you know it's time to send your money.

Hi actually it's more like an 8 week backlog. Contacted him in early February and no reply as of today. Same thing happened back in the day with the FPGA Arcade.

But this is consistent for such a small market. The fact that such products are made available is a modern day miracle. Keep at it Kipper2k, you're doing God's work.

If I'm never able to get the A600 version there's always the A500 and A1200 versions.
Kind of a shame because I have a PERFECT recapped A600 with 2mb chip ram soldered onto the motherboard.

Yep, just to confirm what Crom00 says; In the IRC channel last or 2 weeks ago, Kippa said he estimated about a 7 week backlog/delay from ordering until he reached your order.

He never replies to mails until he reaches YOUR order.

One dude says he put in an email order in late February and his order is being taken care of so I guess it can vary. For what it's worth he is in Europe. Looks like a fun board though!
