Ah, that is good news. This means that now I have no competition left for my upcoming Amiga laptop project. The name of the finished product will be "Effy 060" and I will sell it exclusively in Belgium. ;-)

I guess somebody had a bit too much hope in a nice looking project  :lol:
I hope the SharkPPC and Coldfire are not things of the same kind  :-o

No, I don't think so.. The "production" of sharkppc cards developed by elbox will start when the final version of amiga os4 is out, and the sharkppc will be released by the end of january..
