MrMoonlight (a member here) bought one of those last September, unfortunately it wouldn't work with the right mouse button on all of the mice he tried and he couldn't use it for the early startup screen (holding down both buttons at bootup)... :(

He ended up buying a Cocolino adapter which worked fine with all the mice he tried, never figured out if his was just faulty or these particular adapters just don't work properly...

Be interesting to find out how you get on when yours arrives in 10.3 years time... :)

Funny that it's popping up today. I had just decided to make one myself (Arduino based). As I think it will take me at least 6 month before I will have anything working, maybe I should check wether I can get one, too.

Edit: just noticed that it is the wrong way around. I want to use an Amiga mouse as a USB-mouse.


The Cololino adapter works a treat with USB Wireless Mice, got three of them myself and could never go back to the old Amiga wired mice... :)

Hi Smerf... :)

No Chance... it never said specifically on the box that it was made for a PC... :lol:

So does that mean that all my HDs, DVD drives, Joysticks, floppy disks, printers, and the new wee stick on rubber feet I've bought are better cos Amiga didn't make them ???

Don't think my non Amiga made joysticks were made for a PC, so no matter who made them therefore doesn't matter and as there not for PCs then it doesn't make them any better or worse... :)

Now what the hell I'm trying to say here doesn't matter either cos I haven't got a scooby doo about what the frig I'm rambling on about here and if anyone knows what I'm gibbering here about send your answer on a postcard to.... :)

I think me med's aren't working anymore, my middle ears just fell off and landed in a nice hot bowl of freezing cold pink soup that tastes like yellow, hello Albert what are you doing up there... :)

Think I need to go lye down now, me head hurts... :(

Wheeeeee
