Well.. time to release some info on my forthcoming unit:
- full 24 bit colour depth for all screenmodes and output frequencies
- all OCS/ECS/AGA screenmodes displayed and scan-converted, output is always over 60Hz and flicker-free
- low power consumption, no heat problems (3.3V design, 2.5V core voltage)

Production start by the end of this month, availability in summer, target price 129,- EUR each. Versions for A4000D and OCS/ECS Amigas coming up when the A1200 version started selling and some money is made back.

The design uses only up-to-date parts and is moving more than 300 Megabytes of data per second.

This is só frakking cool! I have had a DCE Scan Magic flickerfixer (internal) for years now, and it has been (and still is!) serving me well, but the above mentioned improvements are exactly what I was having concerns about with my current unit: less heat, >=60 Hz and full 24 bit support.

Especially the >=60Hz support is very nice! :-)

I assume it needs a Sub-D 23-pin (RGB) to Sub-D 15-pin High Density (VGA) monitor adapter?
