Switching of keyfiles does NOT violate your rights, cos you only bought
Poseidon 1.x, which still works for you,not 2.x.

Free updates are a friendly gesture, not something that is mandatory.
You have completely no idea how consumer rights work in EU.


Neither do you Tjaoz..
By your logic, I should sue Microsoft for not letting me have a free copy of WinXP..since I`m a registered Win95&98 owner..

If your original version of Poseidon stopped working, then I`d agree and say you had a legal case against Chris Hodges ..but it hasn`t has it?
On schedule, and suing

These bunch of [insert your favourite word here] did not stop selling the Spider or deliver their own product, but actively continued to promote it, intentionally not mentioning that registrations have ceased. They just don't care what happens to the user, as long as they can sell their stuff.


 Have a look at Elbox`s Spider II page
 When it comes to software, they say...

The software support for particular USB device is provided by appropriate Poseidon class driver.

 Still Elbox fail to mention that for the last 3 1/2 months ,their customers will only get a USB stack that works in demo mode only !

 And back when the RDB killer news came out, Elbox first denied it.. then a couple of days later said it was removed, then called everyone who hadn`t bought a Mediator "underpriviledged"...........
Who the hell do they think they are? Anyone would think they didn`t want any new customers.
