Ask Amiga Inc about Clone-A delivery times.. soon. . it's just a bit delayed..... :-)

I think when it comes to Amiga. Hard proof accompanied with REAL working stuff. Is the only thing that counts.


Clone-A is nothing to do with Amiga Inc, it is the work of Individual Computers. They have already demonstrated the device working: http://ami.ga/news/news124_e.htm

As for release dates of the Clone-A, nothing is set in stone AFAIK. Some relevant information can be seen here: http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=47226
Jens Schönfeld, one of the main developers, said:
"Clone-A is making extremely good progress, but I have decided to make it a real product"
"Public demonstration is currently not planned. I'll do that after the whole deal of product safety, CE/FCC testing and all that stuff has been finished."
This was from about a month ago. From that I'm guessing Clone-A will be released in 2009 (late 2008 if we're lucky).

As for the ACube Minimig run, I did read about the slight delay, but I am not worried, better to make sure build standards are kept high than to unnecessarily rush production. I'm sure ACube knows that MiniMig uses MMC rather than SD cards, but it would be good to change this slight error on their website.

Can't wait to see how ACube speeds up interest in Minimig development, good times ahead. :-D
