As the end of the year is coming… A lot has happened in 2025 for the world of the Foenix. In order to thrive I had to make a choice and to split the difference between the 2 product lines. As you know, Wildbits Computing is now taking care of continuing the K2 productions and I understand they have big plans for the future.
On our side, there was some talk about bringing 2 different products, the original A2560M and an enhanced version, the A2560M Pro. After thinking long and hard about it and in the hope of not making the same mistake all over again, I decided to combine the 2 together so there could be only one. And so I present to you the A2560Me. A mix of what the A2560M Pro could have been with the fundamentals of what the A2560M was meant to be.
This is the ONLY computer board that will be produced in 2026. (now, maybe some accessories or expansion cards might come later) But as far as computer boards go, This is going to be the only one so I can completely focus on it and make sure it is going to be finished as it should.
As for the first Generation of products (i.e. A2560Kxx/A2560X) It is possible that I might bring some of them back but it is not certain, if I see a demand I might. In the meantime, I will get on with the design and completion of the A2560Me board and improve on the core of the Gen1 products.
Happy New Year 2026!
PS: FYI, In early 2026, there will be a migration of the c256foenix.com website to the new foenixlabs.com.
As of Dec 21st, There is a small batch of A2560Me boards that are being produced and they ought to be received early Jan 2026. After the board will be tested, I will move on to fulfill the orders of the A2560M with this new version.
More updates to come. Thank you for your continued patience
OLD NEWS
IMPORTANT – Nov 11th, 2025
As of Nov 1st 2025, Foenix Retro Systems has sold the assets of the F256x family to the company Wildbits Computing Company based in USA. Wildbits has taken over the old FRS Discord Server and Foenix Retro Systems has been transforming into Foenix Labs (a Discord Server exists for it) but soon will post a invite link if you want to join in.
In the weeks to come, the Foenix Labs website will be done and I will be slowly porting over to it. The Foenix Retro System will remain open for probably the next 6 months so people can have access to their accounts.
If you have any questions, I suggest that you go over the Wildbits Website and get on their Discord Server where if needed you can use the Foenix Labs invite on their to reach me or you can simply inquire about the situation there. Now, if you have put your name on the mailing list for any F256x products, that email list will be forwarded to Aleksey (the owner) which in time will communicate with you to let you know about when the products will be available again. In the short term I believe the K2 will be sold as is (aside of the branding marking).
Finally, by the 31st of January 2026 the full transfer of knowledge and/or else will be completed. If you have any question, please ask @ stef (at) c256foenix.com
