What's the current situation with Elbox? Are they still gonna block certain software?

this is so funny, you want to use it but when you dont then you boykott it....


sorry but that is really no excuse...

just because someone didnt step out and made an OFFICAL "I AM SO SORRY ABOUT THE MALICIOUS CODE IN THE SPIDER.DEVICE" means you will boykott them forever after, even though They removed this code less than 30 mins after the whole sharade started.

oh and most of all i have never EVER had any problems with it destroying my rdb and i am pretty sure you wont find an better example as me when it comes to "THINGS THAT GOES WRONG WITH MY A1200" ..

sorry but i think this boykotting discussion wont solve anything at all and most of all elbox havent cleard up if they will make the mediator unuseable with an E3b product or not, atleast not to me.

it was said before poseidon registration was opened again, yes it did but since that is changed now i am pretty sure elbox will budge this as they know it will only make problems for them self + their users in the long run.

30 minutes

Wow, norwegian clocks must work quite a bit different than those in the rest of the world.

There was denial, acussing Chris, accussing E3B and "we have the right to do it"
in between ......

Elbox's attitude is what is keeping me from updating my A4000 (not that it would make
any practical sense, but who said everything has to have a reason ?).

yeah oops

more like 30 days.

first version of the malicious code wasnt found , it was first found in the next update iirc.

and then later it was checked with the older one and found there aswell..

maybe my memeory is crap..

and the new update came pretty fast , but then again maybe its time to check my clock


ohwell its XMAS!!! so i am outta here...

@lempkee

I'm not boycotting them over one incident, but over the fact that they are without principles and have tried to damage and discredit their competitors for years now.

You may not believe in doing so, but I'm quite happy to deprive myself of a product that would be useful to me on a matter of principle.

It's my principle and my boycott. Why do you feel the need to judge what is stupid and what is not stupid from my point of view? I'm not making "excuses" and I most certainly am not seeking approval. I'm just stating my position.

As for the E3B issue, unless and until Elbox state publicly that they are removing the impediment, I don't see any reason to assume that they will.
