AmigaOS 4: MIDI-Sampler Phonolith 1.0
Phonolith is a software instrument created by Timo Kloss for AmigaOS 4, which plays sampled waveforms. It is usable with Horny and other CAMD based sequencers, or just a connected MIDI keyboard.
Starting with version 1.0, Phonolith is free software under the GNU General Public License (GPL) now. This decision was made because the author won't spend much time on this project anymore. He lost the need for it, because he stopped making music on Amiga. Please contact him if you are interested in the source code. A sourceforge.net project will follow.

individual Computers: Delfina - The DSP makes the difference!
Press release Soundcards for the Amiga are continuously popular, but only one soundcard has a freely programmable DSP - a specialized audio processor. With this concept, the Delfina strictly follows the old Amiga idea to do as much work as possible with specialized hardware in order to take load off the main processor. We have taken over the Delfina from Petsoff in 2003, but only published a software update once.

Origyn Web Browser 1.2 and 1.20
The AmigaOS and AmigaOS 4-ports of the Origyn Web Browser (OWB) are available in version 1.2 and 1.20. In version 1.20 the scrolling was improved and in version 1.2 (68k-version) fixes some bugs of the SDL library concerning the keyboard input.
Furthermore the speed was increased and you can now open links with the target "_blank" (in the same frame). GIF-animations cannot be played any longer because it slows down the browser too much.

Review: PCI-Board Mediator TX with graphic board Radeon 9200
For the new PCI-board Mediator TX developed by Elbox a first review was published under the title link.
The author is very satisfied concerning delivery components, support as well as functionality. There were only problems with the Radeon graphic board because the model which was chosen by the tester was still not supported by the first driver version. But Elbox published an update of the driver and then it worked. Finally the author had to modificate the Infinitiv tower in order to use the graphic board.
