 Commodore New Zealand is still selling these boards, so, I have to assume 
is CBM in Australia as apparently we get all our stuff via aussie. The 2630
board hasn't shown up here I don't think. At least if you ask about a 68030
board the dealers all say one of 3 things.

   1. A Who?
       
or
  
   2. No the AMiga only uses a 68000 and can't use anything else.

or most infrequently

   3. No sorry they haven't got them here yet, don't know when
