Announcement: Voltmeter hardware for parallel port
Carsten Siegner is currently finishing the hardware test of his new voltmeter hardware for the parallel port. This includes a 12-bit-ADC-Microchip, with which one can accomplish theoretically 250,000 voltage measurements per second.

This chip is propelled of a 4.19 MHz quartz. The product will soon contain a universal voltmeter commodity and possibly, if I am able to program it, a storage oscilloscope commodity.

A test software for Siegners hardware is already available. This program to display the amount of a voltage supply up to four places exactly. The new hardware is meant for each original Amiga, which possesses a 32Bit-Bus (A1200 and A4000). Unfortunately the software exclusively runs on the original parallel port of the Amiga (no interface map). (nba) (Translation: sk)

TKR LAM200E: DSL direct with the Amiga?
The company TKR from Kiel offers with the LAM200E by LG Electronics a DSL modem that has the PPPoE driver already integrated.

So you can theoretically use DSL directly with operating systems like AmigaOS or MorphOS without having to go the detour via a router, the X-Surf or the not available MiamiDX - though an Ethernet interface must exist on the Amiga or compatible as the modem is connected via this. The configuration of the driver is done externally via a webbrowser.

In conjunction with an Amiga it isn't tested right now - so it's pure theory. The AMIGAplus will try to get a sample of the LAM200E and release a review in the AMIGAplus 03/2003.

The LAM200E owns additionally an integrated router. Connected to a network hub several computers can connect to the internet via the modem.

The LAM200E costs EUR 99,90. Bargains in conjunction with subscriptions are possible. TKR grants a money-back-warranty of 14 days. (nba) (Translation: wk)

Pixload 3 announced
Version 3.0 of Pixload, an alternative startmenu for AmigaOS 3.x, was announced. Icons in the startbar can now be modified simply via drag n' drop and are not restricted to a certain number. Similar to the dock of Mac OS X are active programs marked through a triangle in the Pixload startbar. This and much more awaits you in Pixload 3. (nba) (Translation: wk)

USB card: UltraBUS - one step closer to production stage...
A few days ago the final prototype of the UltraBUS USB card has been sent to us by individual Computers. As soon as this prototype successfully passes all neccessary tests, producing the first batch of production stage UltraBUS boards shouldn't be delayed any further.

This prototype already has all basic features of the final product - including the 512k FlashROM and the very promising 16bit mode which should not only show remarkably reduced overhead on the target system in certain cases, but also result in a noticable improvement of performance on lower specced systems.

Due to the ISP (in system programmable) features of the whole board, final optimisations of the autoconfig logic and the featured TripleBus (zorro, clockport, expansion port) can be applied at any time during the following testing and production stage. (ps)

Michael Menz who is also well-known as "crest" offers a new CD-ROM from and for the demo scene which is called "planet scene".

Besides 121 MP3 tracks which are about nine hours of music planet scene contains 600 DOS intros as well as 220 Windows intros, a choice of the best C64 demos in D64 format as well as a few Playstation demos including the required emulators. You can find a complete list of the music tracks which are available in MP3 format but originally are Tracker moduls (MOD, S3M, XM, IT) under the title link.

OctaMED SoundStudio V2 Resurrected?
As most know, because we heard nothing from the katodev team for a very, very long time and having made many, many attempts to get a reply, we were forced to face the fact that, even with all their failed deadlines and promises, they have let us, and you, down badly.

HOWEVER, Gerd Frank of AmiAtlas fame has decided to take over work on V2, he is having to start from scratch, so give him plenty of time, but he assures us that, (unlike katodev), he will do his utmost to get a new Amiga V2 built and if it is possible, we won't have to wait until human beings step on Mars :)

However, if things do go badly, you 'will' be told and not kept in the dark as to the possible future of a new Amiga V2 release, so check this page every couple of months from now on. (nba)
