Anyone seen these adapters and if they really work?

the ALBATRON ATOP AGP to PCI Express adaptor

Here:

Though it does say it only supports Albatron cards.......I wonder if it will support others as well.

Just curious if they would be any good or if they are questionable.

PL if you read it here, it sounds like it will work for any card...and this seems to be the first of it's kind, but you know there will be more down the road.

I saw this being suggested in one of the forums I frequent. I thought the poster had lost his marbles but google searching proved he hadn't. ;)

He says that he found one in Australia, so I wonder if they are available here yet. Mostly I was wonder had anyone here heard anything about this adapter.

If available here, that would solve a lot of problems, even for me. As eventually I want to go 939 board but since they come with PCI-e slots, and I just bought a new video card, I was hesitant about upgrading now.
