My GVP A4060DT Accelerator arrived today. Haven't had time to install it yet, but I did snap some pictures. I just uploaded them here to the gallery in the A4000 section.

Thanks for the pictures. Minus a few trivial details (like the soldered EPROM) it looks identical to the original. If they fixed the automount bug in the scsi.device, I'm getting one. Anyone want to test their card to see if it mounts PFS3 or SFS partitions? Pretty please? :-)

And I think everyone is still waiting on their Typhoons.

Corresponded with Joe on 6/4 concerning the availability of the Typhoon cards and he replied that he would have them on or around 6/8.  Has anyone received a Typhoon card yet?  I placed an order for one myself based on his expectation.  I'm not certain where that puts me in line to receive one either.  I also used PayPal for my method of payment, and from what I understand that he would send another email with a PayPal payment request, I'm I correct on this?

Thanks,
Mike

Yeah that is what I had heard as well, haven`t received anything yet from Softhut, no email saying that it was shipped either, I guess they are still having some production problems.

Has anyone received any positive word from Joe on the Typhoon Cards? I emailed him today. If there is no new news, I am asking for a full refund. 2 months is just way too long to wait for something I don't need any more. I feel like a shmuck for doing it, but the money can be used elsewhere at this time.

As much as I respect Joe, it is starting to get a bit annoying when he keeps giving us false shipping dates, I have received 5 different shipping dates so far.

Yes, it's always "Thursday." I've sort of lost interest in what I wanted to use the card for, so I'm considering a refund, too...

I can understand, I am kind of tempted to ask for a refund too as it seems like this is vaporware again, I`m better off buying an accelerator from Amibay.

Just an update on the Typhoon accelerators.   Joe emailed me this morning letting me know that he had confirmed the Typhoon cards will be in tomorrow (Friday 6/18).  Now, that was all he said and I hope that also implies that all orders outstanding will be processed and shipped tomorrow as well.:D

I did not receive a whole lot of feedback from my last post concerning payment, but Joe's emailed answered the payment part for me and I guess all the folks irritated over paying and not receiving their cards answered the other one.  

I have patience, but with this kind of special production where everybody (manufacture/seller) is protecting against risk (loss of $$$) my patience can be truly tested when someone has my money and I have no product.  I trust Joe and considering the special production run of these cards I will be a little more patient.  Keeping fingers crossed.
