Bahumbug! Even the promised "beta test" versions promised to major developers last July when the Zip folks conned them out of products to be sure they were compatable with the chip have not been delivered as of Dec. 20.. So if they do not yet have working test versions, how can you expect to have a working version?? One last straw for thought. If no one has yet been able to say they have seen this item, where oh where are all the chips causing the backlog being shipped? Washington Apple Pi reported in a recent issue, that a member went to the address of the company and found a one person office. Hmmmmmmmmm! I wonder how long it will be before someone gets the smarts enough to report tjem to the postal inspectors for suspected mail fraud? Only then will you find out if they are really legit.
