RapidRoad USB starts shipping oct-20-2014

[ancalimon]

Will have to get one or two for my A1200s. Can't afford more at the moment after paying 500€ for upgrading my CStormPPC.

[Amiga4000]

Hello all... long time EAB reader first time posting here. I have a couple of questions regarding the Poseidon V4.5.

Is there a changelog for this version (from V4.4)? Does this new version have any advantages for Subway users? New and improved classes for example?

I bought a clockport adapter a long while back for my A500... will this new Poseidon version be able to work on the A500?

Thanks much in advance!

ordered one as a backup to my trusty Subway for my 1200D & 1200T as I just can't live without USB on my miggy

Will this work with a 4 way clockport expander?

The driver will look for RapidRoad on the "split addresses" that many clockport expanders and the Z4 board are offering. However, since there's no buffered clockport expander that buffers all signals for each port separately (like it *should* be done!), I cannot guarantee it to work. Reason is that I don't know what you're connecting to the other ports, and how those things behave. It's very likely to work, though.

Got mine today, many thanks for the speedy delivery. Now I just need to get my A4000 back and I can actually use it

It's the first time in 4 years that I see Jen's profile option to send him a PM.
Edit: Forget me, the option is closed as always. Sorry.

I also hope the batch of RapidRoads will last for a long time as I can't join the money by now.

Got my package today! Thanks Jens

Sure I'm free Thursday evening or at the weekend

Do you want me to wait for you before I do the install? I don't mind as I'm not in a rush to get it running and I'm busy tonight/tomorrow night anyway.

Received the package from Jens. Had just about enough time to set it up. Tried an old Logitech gaming mouse and it was working perfectly. Don't remember what I needed for the wheel to function though

Maybe Freewheel? That's a tool which comes with Classic Workbench and seemed to work well for me in the past.
