Got this today, a clockport adapter for my GBA1000, It goes in the A1000 case front slot. Going to pair this up with a rapid road most likely.

Nice to see something actually designed for the front port beyond the 256KB expansion. Very cool!

GBA1000 only, unfortunately.

Yeah, but that's OK. My A1000 Phoenix has a big sticker on the front port expansion, "DO NOT USE" which is kind of hilarious. I guess it was for a future expansion that never was or something. I don't remember.

This Clockport adapter also works in the Phoenix.
Both the GBA and the Phoenix have an A500-compatible Expansion Slot (‚Zorro I‘) at the front. The A1000 does not.

Oh by the way as usual: YMMV. The Phoenix has an incredibly bad signal issue. So this adapter may or may not work. Technically it should and most probably but just saying.

Just in case you're like me and became OCD over the "thing" below the clockport:
