I am sure you are right, but I think I remember Hugo saying they only had 10mbps ethernet as it was easier to design a board with ISA rather than the PCI style bus that would be needed to do 100mbps, so switching to PCI sounds like a little more than a minimal respin.

Of course there is the design for pearl floating somewhere around Cambridge, maybe they can just modify that and get a board out for much less money.
