What I want from you now is what do you want NOW. What sort of thing, a realistic thing that can be done some time soon would you like produced? Think small.

Some sort of USB solution for wedge Amigas ?
Keyboard membrane replacements ?

Whoa man you are really great :)
I'll have to find some additional jobs so I can buy everything you make :D

A USB solution for the A500 will be no problem to offer immediately, I will do up a version of the Thylacine for the A500. The 600 and 1200 will be a bit more difficult, but I think some sort of clockport solution shouldn't be very hard to accomplish.

Yes, well A600 and A1200 need it more :) I wouldn't have much use of it on my A500. But sure would on my A600 and A1200. Still, A500 will get more important as IDE interfaces on various cards start selling.

Yuk, membrane keyboards :( Isn't it time our Amigas got quality mechanical keyboards with Cherry MX switches?


Do you mean complete new keyboards altogether ? Or to modify the existing ones ?

New ones. Amiga keyboards suck.


That's fine with me, but they must have Amiga keys layout. No PC keyboards with stickers and adapters. If it's gonna be done, it has to be done right :)

Well, it's not the windows/blank/sticker-ed keys that bother me the most. It's the layout. Del & Help VS 9 PC keys, too many Fs, etc.
Your solution is certainly easier, so... more power to you :) But if possible, I would like a proper Amiga keyboard some day.
