Yes! that's it :-)

Would that work? It could allow us to use more cards :-)


I guess yes, I have none of these devices here to test.
But as a combo card (NEC USB2 + RTL8139 behind a PCI bridge) did work fine, I see no reason why it shouldn't.

Are there actually going to be drivers so I can finally add a soundcard and USB card to my Amiga?

USB drivers are available since several months now (ArackAttack). Sound cards are in development, there were none because sound cards need PCI DMA for operation.

Interesting card :-) I hope that when the firmware is ready you provide the brand and model... saving a PCI slot could be very interesting.

Well I guess that I will keep my Prommy card then. I'm still interested in what it will cost to get this update. Since up to this point I know I'm never going to be able to have a super powered candy coated CSPPC powered A4000 monster system, the least I want is something that will be able to be a little enjoy able to use.
