It is produced right now. There will be no hardware changes between the so-called developers' boards and the ones they'll sell with AOS4. The BIOS ROM might be changed, but that's socketed and easily replaced.

I suppose Eyetech are touting it being socketed because if you buy the so-called developer board, you'll just pop in the ROM delivered with AmigaOS 4 when that arrives. I doubt they'll distribute BIOS image files, that would defeat their OS4 anti piracy scheme (which, of course, will be in vain anyway).
