That is good.

But I don't quite understand this sentence "Note: You will require an fully registered USB stack such as Poseidon USB software before you purchase this item. Poseidon USB software registrations for new Spider USB 2.0 cards are not possible at this time."
Does that mean, that new customers can't buy the Spider or what?

I read it as "you can buy the hardware, but there's no software available to use it".  :(  I probably mis-read, but seem to recall there was a bunch of drama about this application in the past.  Maybe a google search?

Poseidon is open source now. That no longer applies.

Nope!  Both were overcome by the Vapors.  Thus they went from hardware to vaporware: POOF!  They just went into the Ether as a thin line of smoke.

@all

How many of these "DRAGON" coldfire cards were ever produced they look really interesting, are any of them in wild and were they functional?
