According to Eyetech Group, new AmigaOne motherboards will be ready for sale in the next few months (telephone conversation). That's all :-)

Thought Eyetech had abandoned the AmigaOne completely  :-?

Anyway...this is good news
Maybe some of us can finally try out OS4 since we don't seem to get it for our classic machines (yet)  :roll:

Yeah sure, redhouse even claimed there would be no more Amigaones and he was stupid to ever get involved with them.

You guys would believe anything, if someone claimed the Amigaone cured cancer i bet they would sell out instantly.

Will it be :
New models ?

Is it worth to buy one? May be if they reduce the price. Otherwise it is more logical to wait until the release of OS4 final and new hardwares.

According to Hyperion-Entertainment's IRC session on AmigaWorld.net AmigaOS 4 Prerelease 4 would have been OS4 final if there had been hardware available.

Personally, I just hope they get the bugs worked out so I can copy my hard drive from my MicroA1-C and sell it off soon.  I've never had much luck with it.  I'm sure it can be fixed but I don't have the patience to deal with it.  It has hardly been used since I got it.  I want a PowerVixxen LT!

No he didn't.  He said something about being mad (which is the only way to stay sane is the Amiga community), and mentioned there won't be any new models unless he gets an industry order.  He has never said anything about stopping production of existing models, and there are a number of reasons as to why the most recent batch of MicroA1s weren't sold - none of which I'm going to go into here, as I don't know the truth - Alan has never made a statement about it.

At the moment it's still the only hardware. I don't believe for a second the Troika and the PowerVixen are real yet because of a lack of photographs showing the boards and showing them in action.

The original XE has a bug less; the onboard sound works so it is not as broken as some people like to say. On a month by month basis, OS4 is working better and better on it.

If this is true then I hope they will have made some more XE's because I own an XE and a micro and the XE is so much better than the micro.

I hope this is true.
