I see that the delivery time of the A1200NG is updated to shipping in April 2025... Nice!!

Looking forward to it arriving in the mail!

Anyone else on here pre-ordered one?

Sounds good! Best of luck with the distribution and final steps! It must have been a lot of work maintaining the A600GS, which has received plenty of updates, along with this project!

also, @iowtheme will do a livestream featuring the board today, which should be very interesting:

Anyone received their A1200NG yet?  Would love to hear about the first experiences with the new board!

Received my board today and it is up and running in my old Amiga 1200 case! Thanks AmigaKit!

Using it feels just like the old thing, just more flexible and faster. I love the option to just plug in the CF-HD from the old computer onto the new one, that is a very nice feature. I'm currently transfering my contents from the CF onto the Global Work partition on the A1200NG, so that I can have access to my files from the different system configs, including AmiBench of course.

I'm going to publish a review on my blog like with the A600GS in the near future. Have added a few pics, but will reserve most of them for the blog.
