Amiga 600/1200: PCMCIA-SRAM-card can be preordered (Update)
In the Polish webshop of RetroAmi you can preorder a PCMCIA-card with 4 MB Fast-RAM for the Amiga 600 and 1200. It is equipped with SRAM ICs with 55 ns access time. This is supposed to boost a standard Amiga - according to SysInfo - to 1,67 MIPS (screenshot).
The card will be delivered at the end of August and costs about 50 Euro.
Update: (17:45, 28.05.14, snx)
Please note that the card is not buffered by a battery, thus any data stored in SRAM will be lost once the computer is turned off. (snx) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4/MorphOS: E-UAE 0.8.29-PPC-JIT-Beta 3
Álmos Rajnai's integration of an just-in-time-compiler into the Amiga emulator E-UAE for PowerPC-systems was updated. The third beta provides a "register and flag optimization fix. You can turn it on in the configuration, just set comp_optimize to true."
According to the author, it is complicated to offer versions for G5-based systems, because he does not own such kind of hardware. The OS X-version now should work thanks to the support of Tobias Netzel. Having no working compiler, for now the MorphOS binaries are not released.

AmigaOS 4: Announcement of Extended Memory Objects
Under the title link, Hans-Jörg Frieden introduced Extended Memory Objects in a blog of Hyperion Entertainment. It is a kind of bank switching, which was basically used in 8-Bit home computers. In future under AmigaOS 4 it will physically use the memory sections of the computer which a 32-Bit operating system usually cannot access.
