Well this is a big question. Before QNX announced their update about
alliance with
phase5 I sent a mail to the president of QNX and his answer was to me
privately was that they didn't even received any cards from phase5 and that
they will help them to port QNX to their arhitecture. This "will" means
that they didn't even started !?
They promised QNX for existing PowerUP cards also, but QNX didn't received
any either....
Hardware without software? :-)
I don't believe i second that they will ever deliver those G4 cards. I am
simply not interested, I am only interested in AmigaOS running under PPC,
even in completely 68k emulation.. at least will use WarpOS & Warp3D
accelerated applications and would be faster and faster with any new PPC
hardware.
