Amigakit recently sold out of Samflex boards so they temporarily took them off the web page but that does not mean they 'dropped' the Sam ??? where are you getting this info from anyway?


A thread on AWN.

What they haven't mentioned if they will be reordering the SAM440 or not.  They did say if they had enough SAM440 units sold, they would be introducing a new machine at the end of the year.

well i ask simple things and always get bull off everyone 1 day somone might be of help,i live in england and i want to buy 1 from here.

and yes i see the reply out of stock but i dont hear ohh yes webhead will have another delivery buy so and so do i know.

its not an over reaction because it seems others are not listing or havent got any either so you have shut yourself up by having a go at me havent you .

so my original part of questioning then is when will they get some and my email was last monday this monday coming that makes a week ohh i can add up.


Stock is drying up and there is no news of new stock. New boards, probably not going to happen. There is no money in that game.

@ koaftder

just keep reading that same thread and you'll see that other resellers and even ACube itself has Samflexs in stock but the OP only wants to order from Amigakit as they are close to him??

I don't know what his deal is, it's kind of rambling. Maybe he's not a native english speaker? Anyway, perhaps he just doesn't want to do business with any amiga seller than Amigakit, it's hard to beat their reputation. I'm wondering if more boards are going to roll out. A-Eon steam rolling the hype machine has got to be hurting their sales while folks wait for months sitting on the fence to see how this plays out. In my opinion this is screwed up and totally unfair to ACube. I wouldn't be supprised at all if they just pull out and focus on other embedded endeavors. Their EyeMotion product looks pretty nice for folks doing embedded stuff with ARM and need a display solution.

It would be pretty funny if ACube started to handle the EFIKA-MX series with an optional AROS installed.

@ dammy

why? AROS development has been rocking lately and I would love
to see ACube support it!...I also have a good feeling that the empty
FFPGA slot on the Samflex boards will be put to good use soon...

What is better in the computing world (for the Amiga name especialy) - A larger range of companies each producing hardware that can run Amiga OS (like the Windows PC model) or one company (the Apple model)?

Competiton between vendors can drive prices down, but it will also divide the market share, making it less attractive to new entrants.

Perhaps somewhere in the middle (also akin to the PC model in some areas) where a small number of companies produce hardware or a spec which is then licensed and built (and tweaked) by others - this is what happens with PC motherboard and component chipsets.
A1200 in DIY Tower. 3.2 ROMs (softkicking 3.2.2), OS 3.2.2 with ClassicWB, CF card, CD RW and IDE to SD adapter running off the internal IDE port (using the A4000 4-port IDE adapter from Amigakit), Pistorm 32 lite with Pi4/2GB/Emu68 or Blizzard 1230-IV, with 32MB 60ns RAM and 50MHz 68882 FPU. 3COM PCMCIA Network card running with Miami DX.

This thing would makes sense at the $250-$350 price range for a fully configured system with small amount of ram and hard drive.
Heck put linux on it and sell to that community. Have a coding contest for the onboard FPGA...Free trip to Italy I dunno...
