I have it.  It was produced by HiSoft, not Eyetech,  One of the chaps responsible for it posted here a couple of months ago.

It's no longer sold and you need a Win95/98/ME machine to use it.  I had it working once when XP first came out (it may need to have XP installed on a FAT32 partition, or the service packs have broken it).

It works just fine with XP sp2


I'll have to try it again... mind you, my XP machine is running Windows 7 right now.

I still haven't had the time to try it on a Windows 7 machine yet.

Can you get any of it (clipboard, RTG, mouse control, etc) to work?  Have you tried setting the compatability settings on Windows 7 to "XP" for Siamese?

Thanks Xanxi.  If I ever find the time I'll experiment myself.  I want to see if I can get my Minimig to work over the serial link and do RTG.  It used to work like a charm back when I had my A1200 hooked up to an old Pentium 1 using Windows 98.  :)
