   Does anyone out there have experience of the ATW, particulary as regards    
   networking?  We have heard that an Ethernet  card is 'coming  soon', but    
   perhaps they already exist...                                               
 
I feel my previous mail got lost...

The TPM-ETN module is an Ethernet controller from Parsytec for Helios.
Atari announced that the hardware of an Ethernet board for the ATW
would already be ready. It might be the Parsytec board, or another one.
Atari announced the above software for spring. Both products might therefore
be identical.
Atari mentions a price of DMark 1600 +Tax for the ATW-board.
