Umm.... who really cares? It's nicely fueled an community of aftermarket board manufactors who acually add all the extra modes....

This guy in the video needs to drink less scotch or bolt his chair down to the floor. Or wear a helmet while filming and drinking....

I watched the video and wish I had that 5:05 of my life back. I agree with the above...who cares? Although many would disagree with me, I think the only mode should be semi anyway.

i think he is just happy because he thinks that he changed the mind of a company. I thought smart parts lost that part of the lawsuit to wdp... guess they are gonna pay royalties or something to do that. (which is a really surprising move if they need to do that)

I guess you missed the point.

Every after market board sold puts money into SP's pocket via licensing fees. Them not flashing their own stock boards FORCED many to buy a new board... giving SP a double dip of licensing fees.

Not flashing their own stock boards to begin with was a shyster money siphoning scheme. People have caught on and now they MAY start flashing them in the future.

I hope this guy still maintains his objectivity and doesn't get "bought" out.

"Oh hi Mr. Whistleblower, you caught us ripping everyone off and brought it before the world's attention. Here's some free stuff. Start posting about how awesome we are so we can generate more sales and recapture lost market share. Thanks Mr. Tool."

I hope that doesn't happen.
