Are they now available outside of Australia ? The last time I look (about a couple of years back) the Thylacine was only to be sold in Australia / to customers in Australia.


I was quoted AU$10 to ship to the uk, i presume they are.

As for Software, I doubt it but i presume you can download Poseidon, i understand the the author is still taking registrations for non mediator users.

Someone else want money for an usb driver. For a driver????


I presume your talking about Poseidon. Poseidon is not a driver, a driver is the piece of software that allow the hardware to interact with the OS or in this case because the OS has no usb support a 3rd party stack is required. My only experience wits Poseidon is through Morphos on my peg2's and I am very impressed with the level of support it provides, This has made me want usb on my classic machines (mainly to access memory cards etc). If you want something that isn't a part of the os and someone has spent a  time developing it then why not pay for it? I know i wouldn't want to code it.

I don't claim to understand the reasons for him not to support mediator owners (pure laziness on my part, i just cant be bothered to read up) but it is the developers right to say who can and can't use his software.

I just ordered 3 Thylacine cards (2 for me one for a member of our user group) If anyone is interested I'll let you know how i get on.
