I notice it was a while since last activity on this thread.

I can report that new cards with the suitable chip, D720101F1, are flourishing on eBay for just a few USD including shipping.
I also noticed a new card being sold with no eprom, wonder where it would keep the ID..

As for the programming of the chip, what kit did you use? I suppose it is as easy as reading the contents, searching current device ID with an hex-editor, and replace it with the "Elbox Device ID", then write back?
(Would be neat writing a piece of software that would update the flash, if physically reachable through the PCI-bus).

Has the opposite been tried, searching through pci.library / spider.device, replacing the elbox ID with that of the card (NEC ID..?). If success, no modification to the card would be needed..

Thanks!
