No, the most current is Toaster 4.0. You can upgrade to Toaster 4.0 for
free if you just recently purchased your Toaster 3.1/3.5.

I am using an A2000 with a GVP G-Force 030 Combo board with 9 megs of ram,
a megachip 2000, Toaster 2.0 card with 3.1 software, PAR card w/540 meg hd,
and AmigaDOS 3.1. I have had OS 3.1 for about 7 months now and have not had
any problems whatsoever with the Toaster or any software I am currently
using. I also installed 3.1 on my A3000 LightWave Rendering Station and
had minor problems with utilities written for OS 2.x.

The accelerators should be coming out in late November or whenever Motorola
decides to release the chip. The 060's coming out are from Phase5 and DKB.
Phase5s' board retails for $999.99 and has a 50mhz 060, with a SCSI II
interface, and RAM expansion to 64 or 128 megs(I don't have an ad to look
at). The DKB version retails for $1599.99 and has SCSI II, 128 meg Ram
expandability, and other neat features like a PCI bus( I have no idea what
this card looks like), Ethernet, and uses 64bit ram.
