What will be present on the upcoming daughter board?

I would like to know how much it would cost to add an Amiga floppy drive controller to this board. Its a strange request, I know, but I'm curious. I still need to read/write Amiga floppies.

The Kryoflux USB floppy controller might be just what you're looking for, of course there's the small question of amiga drivers.

Alternatively it may be possible to connect a floppy drive up to some spare I/O lines and run it through the FPGA.

I'm interested in the Kryoflux, but it costs $172 CAD$. Great with a PC with USB, but not really an add-on for an FPGA based Amiga.

Basic compatibility is good but supporting every poorly written program is ludicrous. We can patch what is important and make videos of troublesome demos.

Exactly!

Re: FPGA Replay Board

I hope that once these boards are available for sale they can be sold on ebay, or if not, at least from a site that takes paypal.

I used to avoid charges by getting them sent to work. The courier decides which parcels get inspected and they never could be bothered if it had a work address.

The reason was it cost them too much money while the driver waited for someone to be found who could pay. Now you get a letter through the post and the parcel doesn't get released until you pay customs & excise direct.

Its handy if you work at a place that allows you to accept packages. I work in a grocery store, I doubt they'd let me accept packages ;-) heh!
