If/when a customer upgrades to product that does need it, they get kit that can deal with it
The Whole point of having it all D3 kit was to eventually make it easier to upgrade between platforms with as little cost and effort as possible.

What i think has happened personally Virgin was premature in ending the supply of the VMNG300 and didnt foresee the problems of the hub.
