I'm not sure if they can be bought anymore. But http://www.semiconductorstore.com/cart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=43875 does say "Usually Ships Same Day" and I believe SemiconductorStore has a special relationship with PLX so may be. USD150, PCI card. (Not PCIe.) 立, PLX chips have very good performance, if SemiconductorStore still can deliver the above NET2280EVB PCI card then you can realize the DRAM-backed storage device using a Linux gadget driver, in a powerful PC with very little effort. //Peter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
