Re: Hot Spot
I doubt it, they wouldn't have gone to the effort of sending everyone an email and all the PR blab if they weren't sure they were going to go ahead with it.

That's what I thought when I was told today. Maybe not permanently canned but delayed if the reason I was told is true.
We'll see anyway

Do you have a VM source or is it just gossip?

By that reasoning the Superhub should never have been released in the first place.

Re: Hot Spot
But the superhub passed the trial.
Before the trial was finished.
Or had even started.

Re: Hot Spot
If the reason I heard is true it's been rightfully delayed.

That's the problem with not having a verifiable source. Until you have one then it is just rumour no more, no less.

Would that be the Superhub 2 Firmware issue that causes certain games to cut off periodically perchance? And of course the Modem mode issue with DHCP too.
On the VM community forums there have been recent Forum Team posts saying it's being looked at with an update on the issue "soon" but nothing concrete.
