That's a beauty! I was going to buy one right now but they're not available at the site you provided. Any place else to purchase? I googled but didn't find anyone else selling them. Who created this card?

Sordan.ie sells them on his website.  I  *think* the same person that makes the A6095 for the CDTV makes these.  He is already sold out though, as there were only 6 available this morning.  Next shipment will be in 6-8 weeks, he says.  I grabbed one before posting this, will let you know how it works out.  I was going to wait for the Wicher 500i, which has been sold out for a while now, to put inside my unmodded A500, but, this will be going there instead.    The Wicher is a little more expensive, too, and doesn't come with a CPU or RAM.

OK.... thx for the infos Kirk! I'll just keep a watch on the site & keep a lookout at his ebay store. Yea, let us know (with pics) how you like it after you get it! :)

You could always buy a pre-built TerribleFire 030 card from the guy on Amibay that is selling them.

What's the difference between HC508 and HC533?

508 is external, plugging into the expansion slot instead of the CPU socket, to and has a built in CF slot, for starters.  It runs at 50MHz, as well.  Beyond that, I am not sure.

Yes, unfortunately.
