I've seen at least one ad from a german firm, which sells a board with
a 68881 on it for the ST, I'll try to find it again and post the info to
net. One question remains: who would buy it right now? With 99% probability
it will be incompatible with the 'upcoming' blitter upgrade and as far as I
can remember it wasn't exactlly cheap. Atari: what about providing a version
of the blitter upgrade with the additional electronic 'glue' + empty socket
for a 68881?

PS: the March/April issue of c't has instructions for a do-it-yourself
    2MByte upgrade in it!
