Those keyboard and mouse adaptors look interesting!
I just ordered one of each!
Thanks for keeping the Amiga alive!

I am still satisfied with the services of this Amiga shop. ("ACA500" and soon "Sum USB" for my A3000T).

When does the Mechanical Keyboard come out? Also, is this a re-release from some years ago or is this Mechanical Amiga Keyboard for Classic Computers a new one? Thanks
-
@fondpondforever:
The mlecanical keyboard are made only on demand, so we have no stock on it.
It's the one made by Loriano Pagni with 'A' from Amiga printed directly in the keys, it's not some stickers at all.
Thanks for your comments, Laurent

Haha, seriously dude? Maybe some people like using a modern, ergonomic keyboard? Personally I use an A4000 keyboard with my A2000, and a modern optical mouse, with scroll wheel, through an adapter. It's good to have options. Besides, these old keyboards won't last forever, and can be expensive when they come up on ebay. To each their own, I suppose. :p
Edit: people would b**** if there were no adapters available, and they b**** when there are adapters available. Ya just can't win! ;)

@Marcin1982:
It's your point of view, not the one from all people :)
More choices we have for our Classic Amiga, better it is ;)
@Kamelito: we have teste the RyS MKII with success for using a wireless mouse in the DB9 port.
Thanks, Laurent and Franck

Yes great idea. Sell a product for less than it costs to produce and distribute. Makes perfect economic sense. All Amiga product producers should sacrifice their existence to low cost products and go out of business. Then get bagged for their business model.
Buy your cheap sh1t from china and don't complain when it fails a week later.....

These adapters certainly wouldn't be possible for that price. The creator is doing something tricky with the USB stack INSIDE the little device.
That's not easy to do. Add in to that an ability to save user preferences and a bootloader so that you can update the firmware, and I think we're getting a fair bit of tech for cheap.
Looking at the device, it seems to be using a PIC24FJ64GB002 (http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/Devices.aspx?product=PIC24FJ64GB002) microcontroller. A very capable 16bit, 16MIPS little controller some crazy capabilities. Even figuring out how to leverage this chip takes skill and time that I'm willing to pay for.
Given that it's also designed to be non blocking, I might have finally found a keyboard adapter that can keep up with my typing speed!

Hi all!
Just wanted to mention that I bought an FPGA Arcade from Amedia Computer and it is great!!! And their service is flawless :)
I am now enjoying games again and trying to lure my kids into retro-computing :laughing:
Cheers to Amedia Computer!

Same here. I bought a FPGA Arcade, complete system in miniITX case, which I received 2 weeks ago. I'm still in training wheels since I never used a Minimig before, but I'm really happy with both, the system and professional service given to me by Laurent.

I have no problem with the price. I agree with ExtremeWays, there is nothing simple or straightforward about converting a 9-pin d-sub mouse/joystick port to a HID USB port.
I got two of the Sum USB heading my way. I'll continue using my A4000 keyboard with the A4000, but it will be nice to use other more modern mouses and game controllers with it.

Thanks for your help.

Good Day,
The RysMkII looks like some nice kit. Would love to replace my old flight controller, getting a bit sloppy, but how would you "center the stick"? There are trim pots on older controllers and USB ones lack this. Is there a program for this?

Hi Chris,
Sorry but there is np program for calibrating any special flight stick with the RyS MKII.
Thanks, Laurent and Franck

They are ordinary analogue USB type Some programs have adjustment in them but most don't on the Amiga. A small utility would be nice. Maybe team up with Amigakit!

I just wanted to add to my previous comments about Amedia that they continue to amaze me with their quick response time and quality of service.
I just ordered some new items from them, and the order is shipping in less than 48 hours since I placed the order, just because it needed time for its preparation.
I wish Amedia continues adding more Amiga products to its stock, maintaining them "in stock" for quick delivery and delivering the excellent service it currently provides. Kudos.
-
They're good. Great customer service.

Hello, I can't edit my delivery address on the Amedia Computer website. Forgot to add my county on the original registration page and now it won't save my new details when I edit them. Afraid that if I order something, the items may not arrive here. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
