Sorry if you heard this before, I am only new to this newsgroup
and I am hoping my message will get to the US (I am in Australia).

I saw a few advertisement for the Bill's Board Bus Expander for
Amiga 1000 already but it seems no one here in Australia is 
importing them.  I haven't seen any review of the Bus Expander.
My biggest worry is that, I have a very earlier version of the 1000
and I have found that I can only put one expansion on the Bus.  I
have a Sidecar in addition to my 1000, I have tried everything to
expand the 1000 Memory to more than 512K but everytime I put a
memory expansion on my 1000, it refuses to work with the Sidecar.

I was thinking of getting the Bus Expander and sell my Sidecar but
if I found I cannot plug more than two cards inside the Bus Expander
I am no better off.  Are there anyone out there who had bought
the Bill's Board Bus Expander ?  Are you satisfy with it ?  Where
did you get it from ?  How much ?

Thanks in advance.

Anthony
