We do intend to have new products ready in the first quarter of 2004.


So, what do you guys think these would be?
-Amiga OS 4.0?
-Pocket Pc game cards?
-Amiga OS 4.0 SDK?
_a new Amiga DE SDK?
-something else?

Personally I really hope it´s AmigaOS 4.0. I´ve been tired of waitng for a long time.

I didn´t even know that they were thinking of making Pocket PC game cards, where have you heard that?

Hmm, I am beggining to wonder where they get the money to pay salaries and such things from. They can´t make it on selling cups and T-shirts.  Maybe they have a secret sponsor?  ;-)

Also from Fleecy

It has been a slow year for many reasons - lack of resources, the time it has taken to get the latest Intent update, prospective customers umming and arring, Microsoft warning OEMs away from card based solutions until they fixed the problems we found, waiting for PocketPC2003 to become dominant and waiting for the Smartphone product to become more stable.

Amiga Inc. don't have the money to make new products, that's a brutal fact. If they plan something new, it's another money raising scam like the I Am Amiga Club voucher scheme to pay for legal fees.

According to Bill McEwens deposition, they have not paid any  salaries since June of 2002 (not a misprint, over 18 months ago).   He lists 12 people as unpaid employees.  In June of 2003 of course the contents of their offices was auctioned off by their landlord, a company they still owe over $140,000 to.
