Just had this from Wilheim:
Dear Mr Smithson,
the interest was relativly low and the expectations high.
So we have canceled the original design and currently evaluate an
alternative approach. You will be contacted as soon as we have new
information.
Best regards

I thought the original spec (see below) was going to be amazing for the price. Can the forum organise a campaign to prove their is interest in the new machine or am I the only one who is interested? (I can't believe THAT!).
Spec: We have a hardware platform available that is based on the Coldfire CPU
>featuring 316 MIPS performance. This board can be used for the project with
>only minor modifications.
>The principal decision will be made in the first half of october. Pre-orders
>will be taken from mid of october.
>The system price for a base unit without harddisc and enclosure we expect to
>be Euro 696 (Euro 600 plus VAT).
