Kevin Moonlight just released a video demonstrating his Pi Pico-based PCMCIA card that can emulate NE2000 over Wi-Fi, serial port, and Sound Blaster for retro laptops, handhelds, and other computers. He's gauging interest in the project for a future build, so if you're interested in one there's a link in the description to a form.
Kevin is great, he was responsible for the bulk of the SoundBlaster DSP support that was just released on #PicoGUS! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoJ12leojwo

Another update from Kevin: his card can now emulate a CD-ROM drive with audio. Awesome work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L59Bp61Je4Y

@polpo omg will this work on an Amiga 1200?

@mrsbeanbag It almost certainly would! I'm going to test it on my A1200 as soon as I can. Kevin also has access to an A1200, and he has an idea to make a short version of the card that wouldn't stick far out of the Amiga like a normal PCMCIA card does.

@polpo @mrsbeanbag This was my first thought too :)
