It actually comes with a driver, but the developer of the only USB stack for the Amiga has discontinued classic support and registrations.  (Bummer too since the Thylacine Z2 USB was just re-launched after a couple of years...)
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

Not according to the Posiedon website.  All non-OEM licenses are discontinued (Subway, Algor, etc.).  And, even OEM 2.x licenses can only be upgraded until the end of the year.  

It's really a bad situation.  Reasons aside, it's another shareware author abandoning the platform.

@keropi

Then why cut off upgrades to Subway (and other E3B) product holders?  He's abandoning all classic support, not just Elbox.

Edit:  I have nothing against Chris and think his contribution to the Amiga community has been great.  After all, it's his software, so it's his right to do with it as he pleases.  I still hold out hope that another run of the Algor pro will be done (and if so that the OEM Poseidon 3.x license will be included).  The subway on clockport/kickflash just isn't a good solution for me.

Again, the driver is not the issue.  The Elbox Spider I/II come with a driver.  It's the USB stack, Poseidon, that is not available.  You can not register Poseidon for ArakAttack either.
