It's been discussed a lot in bit.listserv.i-Amiga and csa.misc of
course. The AA and AF mailing lists have also given it a lot of
coverage. Amiga Active carried a four page review in their December
issue (two weeks before AF's "Exclusive First Review" :) and there's an
OS 3.5 Masterclass in the Jan 2000 issue.

http://www.amiga.de ? :)

> Have people in here upgraded, if so what do you reckon?

It's worth getting.

> Does it provide internet out of the box as promised?

Yes, but it's basic Internet, as promised. It won't replace existing
commercial or registered software.

> Do IDE CDROM drives work without being patched?

Yes, although only the first unit in my CD Changer works unless I use
IDE-fix.
