When will the A1 / OS 4.0 bundle be available?

When will we be able to buy A1/OS4.0?

I guess now. AFAIK the new boards are sold with the same prerelease CD.

Will OS4.0 support the SharkPPC cards, any timelines?

I can start to estimate this as soon as I get a SharkPPC. Before that it's a moot point.

Will there be a pegasos port of OS4.0? (Pegasos website thinks so!)

I don't think this is about "think so" or "not think so". If someone licenses AmigaOS for Pegasos, there is a definite possibility.

They are more interested in Amiga how it is / was rather than the new A1 platform (I guess is what I'm trying to say  )

Why do you think so?

If I was in OS4.0 marketing I would put out an official (heavily optimistic) release date out there from the off and have boards going out with the pre-rel. Just to cash in on my own hype.

That's what happened in the past, and we won't make that same mistake again. The current release date is set to "when it's done", and that describes it pretty accurate.

Morphos currently looks like a better environment than OS4 does.

Based on what assumption? Did you see both and compare?

Isn't all the information required, ie the API etc, all available as part of the OS4 SDK. Theoretically they could begin now that the pre-release is out. With a bit of effort Morphos could be more OS4 compatabile than OS4

Apart from that being a rather stupid comment ("more OS4 compatible than OS4"), it's legally impossible because the SDK  material is copyright protected.

Please guys, let's keep this civil.

I don't consider "more OS4 compatible than OS 4" and a call to reverse-engineer out work civil to start with.
