According to my sources AppleTalk was unbundled from  A/UX 1.1.1
and is available as Apple part no. 690-5392-A.

What is A/UX 2.0?

a) The next A/UX release, based on Sys5r4, which should be available ... ahem
   hard question. Don't think anyone knows that.
b) The 2.0 refers to AppleTalk 2.0, available for A/UX, and not to AppleTalk,
   available to A/UX 2.0.

Disclaimer: I don't know myself if a) or b) is correct.
