So, I've been planning on buying an Acekard 2i, since it seems to be getting much better compatibility than my R4. DealExtreme has the best price I've seen ($12 US). Does anyone know if DealExtreme sells real or rake Acekards?
If you bothered reading, that's the new version.Sephiran said:oke lol I have an acekard pulled of sticker( on sticker was site link) and I cant see any chip its closed! I only see the shell of the card with an freaky round in the mid. and it works on akaio 1.5!

QUOTE said:Be Care Of Clone Carts
This is the clone ak2i. They're using the "Actel" chip which we do not use for a long time. We do not sale this type of ak2i anymore. The clone cart has to open a window at the back of shell to fit the chip. You can even feel them by touching the sticker.
Here is the internal images of clone cart. By the way the PCB is also different from our older type of ak2i, which used "Actel".
Now here is the our real Acekard2i.
As you can see there's no window in the shell of real AK2i.
Now we're using new chip so that we do not have to open a window in the back of shell.
Here is a easy way to distinguish real one and clone one, using the latest official firmware or AKAIO. The clone one will be blocked.
Once again, weoffer one year warranty for real AK2 and AK2i. You can contact your reseller for a replacement for any issue of the real AK2 and AK2i. We do not guaranty any safe use of firmware on clone AK2 and AK2i, and on your DS or DSi. We won't offer one year warranty for clone ones in any case. Please pay attention when you're buying Acekard. Thanks
apparently the cards and labels are usually shipped separately, so they're all put on by hand.iamnot_bob_dole said:Let me guess, if the card's sticker looks like it was put on by hand, it's a good sign that the card is a fraud card...
Is that right?

Acekard 2.1 from DX (Received mid Jan)
and Acekard 2.i from Redhotstuff (Received Today)
I already took the stickers off half way and they were both solid.
