Stereo headphone amplifier for Amiga computers: KA71
The sound output of the Amiga is given out on four channels: two on the left stereo channel and two on the right one - this is not an advantage if you use headphones. rastport.com offers a solution for this problem: An amplifier for the Amiga called KA71. "KA71 can mix stereo channels at a level adjustable with a knob, from full separation to mono output." Still it is not clear when the device will be available at the distributor of rastport.com.

Speech synthesizer: espeak 1.1
The Amiga port of the speech synthesizer espeak wriiten by Jonathan Duddington currently is available on Aminet. Espeak speaks 75 languages in 19 different versions. The Amiga version is identical to the original Linux version. The audio.device is used for the speech output, but it is also possible giving it out into a file. In this way it is possible first to create a wave-file on slower systems and then to play it. The translator.library is not required.

Podcast: AmiCast 24 - Interview with Jon Lennart Aasenden (Amibian.js)
In the 24th issue of his English-language podcast, Krzysztof Radzikowski has talked to Jon Lennart Aasenden. One of his software projects is the Smart Mobile Studio, a development environment, in which programs can be written in Smart Pascal and then compiled as object-orientated JavaScript. As an example project Amibian.js is included.
While Gunnar Kristjansson's Amibian is an image for the Raspberry Pi starting right into Amiga emulation (amiga-news.de reported), Amibian.js is an AmigaOS emulation in JavaScript, which similar to FriendUP runs in a browser (Amiga Cloud Desktop).

Retro aracde machines in Amiga design
At "Ray's Arcades" custom build aracde machines are available which are equipped with a PC. The system emulates ten - which are not specified - classic computer and consoles. The cases are made of wood and are rather small (610x340x360mm) so they can be transported. Many different designs are available.
You can also order predefined design templates. Additional to themes "Sonic the Hedgehog" or "Pacman" an Amiga version is also offered.
