The German manufactuer of Atonce has said that they only support the the
current version for the A500.  However, the US distributor, has said that
it does work in both the A2000 and A1000.  However, the Atonce comes with a
card that plugs into your 68000 socket, and a card that goes between the
Gary chip and its socket, the card in the Gary socket allows Atonce you use
the Amigas custom graphics for the IBM screens, thereby increasing the
re-draw speed.  The Atonce will work without the Gary chip, as you will
have to do in your A1000, but you won't have the same re-draw speeds as a
A500 or A2000 user.

As a side note, the distributor also told me there will soon be an
inexpensive A2000 adaptor, which will allow the Atonce to use the IBM slots
in the A2000.
