Due to reasons I will not explain here further (ask me in private),
Poseidon keyfiles cannot be bought after 01-Aug-03. People having just
bought an USB card, that does not come with an OEM Licence, have the
chance to register Poseidon until the end of this month.
Support for existing users is NOT affected and will continue as usually.
It is recommended that dealers stop selling USB cards without licence to
avoid angry customers buying an useless piece of hardware, until the
vendor delivers his own software solution or the situation is solved
somehow.

Poseidon licencing ceasing on 01-Aug-03 : Comment 77 of 94 | ANN.lu |

This 'error' persists in the Algor web page (http://e3b.de/usb/main_algor_e.html). It still reads that 'Algor is compliant with USB 2.0 specification'. The same is written in the product description with the distributor (probably copied from the E3B site).
When you buy this product, its User Manual reads something else.
Now 'Algor is compiliant with USB 2.0 devices' (http://www.e3b.de/usb/soft/al_manual.pdf).
So is it an 'error' only or what you called 'intentional customers cheat?'
It looks like the 'Algor is compliant with USB 2.0 specification' phrase is placed deliberately to suggest that it is a USB 2.0 standard controller.
English is not my native language. When I wrote 'false' I thought about 'wrong' or 'inncorrect', but it seems that accidentally I hit the target. |
