Seems a bit of a con for him to launch such a board with the promise of core updates and then never deliver on them.

I have owned a Catweasel mk4 for more than a year now and I am quite happy with it. The drivers have improved quite allot since it was first released and there have been a number of driver updates which updated the FPGA. Which anyone who has downloaded the drivers and read the included readme's would know
In fact they have just released an a driver update the which updates the firmware the other day. See
http://www.jschoenfeld.com/news/news124_e.htm for more details.
I am not saying its perfect but I have used it to backup over 100 disks and also to write a number of ASF images back to disk to use on my A1200 so it dose work.
DF0 emulation under winUAE would be very nice as I would love to be able to create CAPS images from my PC, but I would not use DF0 support every day.
