Hello,
I am waiting that someone write interface program for EISA Ethernet
cards, too. But, there is an economical problem. 
Usually, EISA Ehternet cards are much expensive than ISA cards, 
for example,
	NOVEL NE3000 $700
	Intel EtherExpress $550
	No bland maker $250 - $400
I have hard that 3Com is going to produce a new EISA Ethernet card,
product name is 3C579, about $300. I cannot remember SMC/WD's ESIA 
card name, but the price is about $650.

I'm now using SMC/WD 8013EBC(Plus Elite/16) with DX2-66 + 8.33MHz
EISA bus speed, and can get 450kbyte/s for ftp (over 4Mbps). 
Is this speed very slow for you? I'm almost satisfied.
