- QN3000+ .. believe me now?

- OK, Info is from Amiga Magazin (Magna Media), Issue 12/94 (therefore I am not
- sure if it still exists), page 148.

- This company also made a product similar to Envoy, also called QuickNet. The
- QN hardware is compatible to Envoy and AmiTCP too.
-
- There were also versions for A500, A1200 and A2000 (some of which included
- some SIMM slots, so I guess they were internal).
-
- If anyone finds this thing still exists, please tell me, as I will be needing
- an ethernet card sometime this summer.
