They have not leaked, this is my sale.

Unfortunately very little interest in the 330.

Also, the red boards pictured were an experiment with 0.7mm added to the edge connector in the hope that the board house would bevel them (they didn’t). This actually makes hand bevelling a lot easier and apparently it follows some ISO standard.

Anyway for those moaning about Ebay prices, please realize that Ebay takes a straight $50 cut. I am not making this up. You are very welcome to buy them directly and save on the Ebay fee.

I let Alen have the Gerbers to try a few different options checked out with the edge bevelling.

Odd that there isn't much interest, mines flipping amazing! :D

I am super impressed with it (bought from supaduper via amibay).

Probably more interest in Europe as the CD32 sold more units here

Based on the 328 numbers, I was expecting the 330 to ship about 100 units, but I only shipped 50, so I am stuck with lots of unused cplds and ram chips. But luckily at least I can recycle the cplds on the 360.

Maybe the TF360 has cannibalised interest in the TF330?

I know that I'll be getting one (TF360) to swap out the TF328 in my other CD32 eventually but I bet most people don't have multiple CD32's :D

TF330 is available now. TF360 is still a long way off and there will be compatibility issues.

EDIT: for the folks that demand we do assembly runs.. Alen has £2000 of boards there.. assembly runs would be way more risky and we’d need to change more to cover that risk.
