New pds adapter for SE/30?

[beachycove]

The same seller who markets the power monster scsi-cf cards for powerbooks appears to have come up with something special for the SE/30:

And once again, they're not cheap.

I think those were manufactured a while ago and he still has stock. Notice the list of incompatabilities bewteen cards he lists.

Or the inverse. The adapter is very compatible with many SE/30 accelerators and video cards and ethernet cards. The card does not work with the Turbo 601, alas, but I am still waiting to hear about other cards that do work.

It is a pricey product, and I might bite when the UK exchange rate is more favourable. The same vendor sells PSUs and other gubbins for the SE/30 which you might make for yourself, but the PDS adapter is much more challenging.

Alas... so close, yet so far

It's too pricy for my taste; might as well use the money and save up to buy a Micron Exceed when one shows up. (that is, if one ever does)

I know somebody who has the complete xceed grayscale setup if you want to spend $400 on it.
