Hi, I'm wondering if anyone else didn't receive their unit in the mail, and if so, what did you do to help track it down? I'm feeling pretty frustrated I didn't get my package yet, and am looking for tips on how to track it down. Thanks.

I really hope I will receive mine this week, it would be great timing! I am on West coast too so hopefully it will arrive (I don't think the Polish tracker can track outside of Poland though, maybe it depends on the destination country) Glad to know it flies with the 4Mb upgrade, I'm really glad I upgraded from my unmaintained noisy STF to an STE with latest TOS, etc. It's whisper quiet in comparison!

I'm wondering if ease-of-use and memory overhead are the main differences, if any driver would do just as well for me having the 4Mb memory upgrade. I'd like to get whichever driver I end up deciding on around the same time the USatan arrives, so I guess there's no rush as the two paid drivers will allow you to download after you pay right? Does anyone know of guides on how to prepare the memory cards? At the moment I have just one 2Gb card empty and dedicated to this, should I get another smaller one to use as the DOS/TOS swap card?

Hmm sounds like PP Driver might be enough for me. I only plan to use UltraSatan and will want to go back and forth frequently passing data from PC to USatan. Is the idea to have 2 SD cards for different purposes? One is a larger card with 4x512mB partitions (and one smaller boot partition?) that is the Atari's host drive that usually stays plugged in, and another smaller SD card formatted DOS/TOS used for file transfers between PC and Atari? If anyone has posted a guide let me know, thanks! I am very new to all this.

Hi Lotharek, you are right! I didn't know I can't edit my post after some time, or I would remove the info. I will try using report feature of this forum. Can anyone explain the main difference between hddriver and pp driver?

Awesome! I am pretty sure I would get one then. It would still be great to have more details about how USB/Ethernet is implemented, what you can and can't use the ports for, it would be really awesome to get internet on Ethernet for example. Yeah, agreed! The closest I got was with a monochrome adapter, I can connect in black and white hi-res to my 15" LCD, but it doesn't use the whole screen, and looks kind of weird with stripes of lighter and darker shades of grey going down the screen. What were the most popular softwares that only work in Hi Res? I can't remember, but I am excited to finally try them, as until now I was always stuck using Low or Medium with my SC1224 monitor and never could.

Is anyone else using the tracking number to track their shipment? I got one and it seem like my package is stuck in Europe?? The destination country changed from Canada to Germany (DE is Germany right?) and looks like package went Warsaw for awhile then sent back to departure city or something?? Also if it ever does arrive, what would people recommend for someone like me for a driver? I will be a pretty heavy user, using the Atari for C and Assembler programming, and demos (both audio and graphics demos). I am thinking maybe HDDriver is right for me just because I will be going back and forth a lot with my Windows XP machine with SD card reader. I am running STE 4Mb RAM 2.06 TOS.

I have to say though, I just noticed that for whatever reason the PCB layout in all the pictures I've seen make the Ethernet port block the MIDI ports for some reason. I really wonder why it can't go on the other side where it doesn't block anything! Lotharek, if you didn't already design your version of the PCB, maybe consider putting the Ethernet port facing forward instead of back!

Where can we get a Lotharek sticker for our Atari?

I'd like to add my support for this, and say that I'd buy one 100% for sure if they end up getting made. I just bought an UltraSatan and cable so my word is good!
