PowerFlarm Update?

My take is that they are sorting out some unanticipated issues -- a neverending story in software development. Should we take bets that there will be an emergency release to push back the expiry date? Tick, tick, tick, tick.... According to their facepook page the update is due for the coming weekend. In Europe we have been through this procedure already a few times, so I am not worried, but from experience I expect that there will be a few more updates before everything runs stable. -- Peter Scholz ASW24 JE |

"According to their facebook page the update is due for the coming weekend." Reminds me of the sign in my favorite pub "free beer tomorrow" Mike |

Unlike the flight navigation computer domain where there are multiple vendors competing with one another to stimulate a robust development and support environment, I'm quite surprised that there is no other entity to have taken up the torch for this worthy cause (especially here stateside) to encourage the same. For the most part, some healthy competition keeps all the players engaged, honest and focused. Maybe it's time for some healthy discussion about an alternative. |

With a market as small as this one, dividing it and trying to create a competition to get to the financial bottom makes very little sense to me. UH |

Page at www.flarm.com has been updated today...
Under "Firmware 6.0" it says: "The current firmware in all FLARM devices will expire March 31, 2015. It will be replaced by the new firmware version 6.00, which will be released by March 16. When the new firmware has been released, this page will be updated." |
