At this point I think it is relevant to mention that Simtec is now
offering an upgrade of the StrongARM to rev. T for GBP 100 (incl.
VAT and UK postage).

If you would like this service, I suggest that you contact Simtec:
Simtec Electronics
Avondale Drive
Tarleton
Preston
PR4 6AX
GB
Tel: +44-1772-812863
Fax: +44-1772-816426


NOTE! If you are running RISC OS 4 and have a SCSI or IDE card, you may
      run into problems with a revision T StrongARM. RISCOS Ltd. are
      looking into this (http://www.riscos.com/).

I will consider this later on since I am running RISC OS 4 and have
recently bought a second-hand rev. 2 (K) SA-110.
