Can anyone comment on the Spirit ST506 adapter for the A500?

Is it actually in production?
Does it use 8-bit or 16-bit controllers?
Is the Spirit adapter cage big enough for a full length card?

Would the Perstor PS180 ARLL controller be worth getting,
  i.e. would the Amiga be able to take advantage of the advertised 90% increase
  in capacity, 30% increase in performance over "normal" controllers?

  ST4096 + PS180 = 150 Megs / $800 sounds too good to be true!! :-)
