Â*Â*Isn't that like buying a license to active the passenger side seat belt in a car?Â* Or the rear brakes? Maybe if you pay extra they'll sell you the feature where it keeps on working after the firmware "expires"?Â* (As long as the data packets are still compatible.) Dan: We have no choice about seat belts and brakes, which are mandated by law. Do you want to go there with PowerFlarm? :^( Dan: Buying a license for an optional feature (also known as "buying an optional feature") is like buying the "primo" optional interior for your new car, except you can do it anytime, even years after the purchase, unlike that fancy interior. Would you rather they included everything that is now optional, and charged you for it, instead letting you pay for only what you need? I also agree with Dan that having to buy a license to activate the "B" antenna is ridiculous. Yes it's an optional feature, but it shouldn't be. They've already developed this feature and it's built into the device. And it is important for the safety benefit. That's different from some of the other optional features like IGC-certified logging, which are separate from the collision avoidance purpose, and they can make those who want that feature pay extra while keeping the price lower (?) for the rest. |
