Reminds me...

I need to sell my dongle.   Haven't been playing lately, and not sure if I will be anytime soon.  May as well cash 'er in.  Gonna get Ebay'd next month.

Was of the understanding, when I purchased, that transferring ownership was just fine.

I would actually consider buying it from you.  If you can confirm it can be transferred, I would seriously consider it.


I'll check into it. 

I know that people have been selling theirs for years.  Being able to was the main reason I buckled and paid the big money for it, knowing I could get some of the cost back if need be.  Just gotta figure out if I need to give any special notification or info to eSims.

It is the previous version of SBPro  (3.027/3.028), so it would still require a further purchase of the latest big update ($40).  A new one would cost $125.  So I'm gonna price it a tad lower than the difference when I sell.

Will update once I get something solid.

Final update unless something goes horribly wrong.  Bought a used dongle from Mr. Nefaro.  As much as it pained me, had to buy the 4.0 upgrade also.  But my goal of minimizing how much I gave esims was met.  A big thank you to Nefaro for making the transaction as smooth as possible.

Just saw this on steelbeats.com.

Posting just for completeness.

Here's the money quote from ssnake:

a) Customs in Canada are notoriously slow; three weeks appear to be the norm rather than the exception.

b) If a stick disappears before the license has been activated, we'll send a new one without proof of destruction.

Once that the license is activated the situation is different, of course.

This is a POS company...one I will NEVER do business with.

Did they ever change the resolution on gold I remember my older game was only 640 x480?

Not that I'm aware of. And it bothers me not a wit. I am an old-school gamer to begin with and eye candy in and of itself does not impress me as much as gameplay.
