Title: A1200 - Scandoublers
Post by: w00p on March 23, 2005, 07:28:03 PM

I currently have an A1200 (PAL version I believe) and I want to be able to hook it up to my 22" PC monitor. I *think* all I need is a Scandoubler? Is that correct?

I noticed on SoftHut they have one (external) for sale for $144.95 --> http://www.softhut.com/cgi-bin/test/Web_store/web_store.cgi?page=catalog/hardware/accelerators/apollo_scandoublers.html&cart_id=4643746_7996

Is this a good price? Is this what I need?

Note: I live in the USA.

Thanks!

Sorry no longer made, a manufacuterer in Germany is trying to make a new model. Should know more in 2 or 3 weeks if you want to check back :pissed:

Have Emailed Softhut several times since Oct/Nov lasy year and they've always told me to get back to them to check if they've re-stocked with Ext. SD/FF.
This is the latesr reply I got (got it in February)

"No nothing right now. HOpefully we will find someone make a new batch soon."
