The Subway is a clockport adapter for the A1200 (possibly others) to allow the Amiga to use USB gadgets.

It's not the Subway that allows you to use these, it's the Poseidon software that comes with it that drives the gadgets.

The range of gadgets is large but unfortunately, Chris Hodges has taken down his site so you can't read the supported ones any more.

However, most USB flash drives, CDRW and hard drives work. Also, some graphics tablets, mice, keyboards and so on.

Get one, you'll be glad you did!

i have an old hp 8200e usb cdrw. i suppose it could just be used as a basic cdrom if nothing else...

what about usb ethernet? does anyone use a 10/ 100 usb nic? thanks.

Don`t expect miracles when it comes to speed. Transferrate is measured in a few hundred kb/s rather then MB/s. The Deneb provide enough speed to effectively use HDs and CD-ROMs via USB when it is out.
