Just to clarify on the AmigaONE X1000 driver support:

HD 7.1 Sound Driver: completed and released
NemoSound: completed and released
RadeonHD v1.2 and v2.4 Driver: Completed  and released (optional v2.4 driver gives accelerated video playback)
DMA accelerated graphics card library: completed and released
4GB support: completed and released
AMIStore: RC1 available

Warp3D Driver: more exciting news in Q2/2015

Regarding the cores, just one core of the X1000 is significantly faster than any other currently released AmigaONE.

A-EON will continue investing in the X1000's future.  You may have noticed the software that has been purchased recently such as ImageFX, PPaint, Aladdin 4D etc.

There are several other announcements to come soon which will benefit the X1000.

announcement of a soon announcement is another example of what is customary to be issued, and hardly ever to prove if it ever has been delivered, since the content of announced announcement content might have been announcement of an another announcement.

I think A-EON Technology Ltd's track record on following up on announcements is very good over the last 3 years that it has been involved.  Warp3D is one announcement that is currently outstanding but not for long now.  A-EON now has purchased Warp3D so now has far more control over this project.  The RadeonHD project in both 2D and 3D terms is a mammoth achievement for AmigaOS and support for the latest R5/R7/R9 RadeonHD cards is very exciting.

You may have noticed that A-EON Technology Ltd has been buying famous Amiga software applications recently.

These applications are much loved by a lot of Amiga users worldwide.  These are reasons why people choose Amiga as well as the familiarity of the AmigaOS.

The idea is to natively port these Amiga applications from the older Classic to the newer AmigaONE X1000 and successor machines so no emulation is required.  In addition, these applications are being updated to build on their familiar look, feel and way of working but modernise them to make them more functional and feature-rich.

The first application to be ported was PPaint, which in addition to be ported to the X1000, has been updated to version 7.3a.  In addition the improvements have been back ported to the Classic Amiga so the new version 7.3a exists for both the new AmigaONE and Classic Amiga systems.  A-EON does not forget that there are lots of Classic owners out there still.

The next applications to undergo this upgrade will be ImageFX, Aladdin 4D and some other surprises to be announced soon.

It is also an objective to integrate all A-EON owned software so it interacts together more easily.
