2.0 _will_ be available on the 500.  It is possible that Commodore would not 
support such an addition, but I wouldn't worry about it.  There are no 
really good reasons to do such a thing.  Besides, they don't support 
more than one external drive, but many people have them.  

Given that the 2000 and 500 are very similar, there _can't_ be any problems 
with simply popping your "A2000 2.0/ECS Expansion Kit" into an A500.
