We would have a RUSHED update, or a RUSHED server for the update, again, a kid, thinking all should come right now without waiting...
so two months isn't waiting? How long is soon anyways?

Remember bullies back in the day? Bullying was considered getting your ass kicked or pushing a coin with your nose through piss on the floor. Now it's just words...
I keep coming back to this image. It's basically everyone in this forum.My F5 key has the paint worn off it for some reason...
Yes a buggy release that doesn't work at all. Programming this shit takes time, and the release date will not be cut to half if they add twice the man power to do it. Maybe add 20 more people to cut 25% time...Probably shouldn't be so negative. Seems like the right thing to do though. I did just send a request to cancel 2 gw carts. If more people did it, we would have had an update a lot sooner. Entitlement implies a handout or that we expect a free update. I bought three cards based on a promise. Holding them to it is the only thing to do at this point.

The trick is to alternate between the mouse and f5.

They want to release this more than you want to buy it, since they are losing sale to sky3ds
I'd be surprised if there were more than three people working on this update. If they release what they have I'll bet someone here could finish it by tomorrow.
Am I wrong if I calculate way more than 100k gateways sold? I would say that they might be reaching a million usd in profit... at least not discounting the money going to resellers.
Check my website xDHah, I just thought of a great idea for a countdown clock. It should do this.
1. Start an eleven hour timer at 6:00 A.M EST (11:00 GMT).
Possibly adding some text that say "Gateway should be released within:" or something along those lines.
2. As soon as the timer runs out, change the text to "Gateway should be released tomorrow."
3. Loop back to one.
Fine, I'll jump in this game too. I work in software development and am involved in one of the biggest projects for the company and we had a deadline, but despite how hard we tried and how late we worked it got pushed back a month, and even now we are pushing it to get it done in time. This was all because one unforeseen issue cropped up after another. A task that should have been completed in a couple of days took three weeks due to something completely unrelated to what we were working on. And to be honest, the stuff I'm working doesn't have the potential to BRICK DEVICES.
Check my website xD
They need to accept that such things are not set in stone. Delays happen. Those messages are not promises, they are projections/predictions.
Software vendors can project release dates all they like, but things do happen and those dates get pushed back. Anyone who deals in the software business understands that.
Any time a customer makes a purchase based on pending information like that, they are taking the risk into their own hands.
Bottom line: if you want to be safe, only buy a product based on its CURRENT capabilities, not PREDICTED capabilities. I have no sympathy for anyone complaining because they didn't follow the most basic rule of caveat emptor.
