Viewsat is GONE! (or very soon)

[sam008]

Here is more info that I got...
Viewsat supply network has collapsed (went underground), their is no communication between dealers, distributors & Viewsat (check with any VS dealer if they are honest they will confirm you this)... this was what happened when Neosat went upside down...

This is typical 1st step of getting close to grave... I won't give Viewsat more than 3 months before it is completely gone... sorry for the dealers stuck with Viewsat inventory for now & also for all those Viewsat crazy fans who I warned last year to not buy Viewsat Max HD as N3 was around the corner & couldn't figure out why VS released new model during it.

Although, I can't imagine anyone buying VS FTA now, unless they have money to burn.

The only guys supporting them are Viewsat dealers & insiders connected to VS & posting threads in favor of them here. Don't listen to them, let VS release N3 update 1st then buy them(which I doubt). And then they will argue buy Viewsat for True FTA... hmmm why, when you can get any FTA box under $50 that will do the same, for true FTA their are so many models to choose from why buy VS for that & what about the warranty... dead companies don't provide any warranty support in future.

Well some of these crooks accuse me of working for other FTAs...

hmm, which ones... may be for all of the working IKS models... at least I am not like you guys trying to sell VS by claiming they will release fix "SOON" or next week, next month or next year.

Don't pin your hopes on Viewsat, I sold mine last week when Sep 17th date passed. Well at the end, think before you buy... it's your money not someone else. If nothing else, you can use it for SUB, at least you will get few months of TV with it.

well if you sold yours last week then you ripped someone off. That was so honest of you.

Thanks for the info Sam.

[Huskred]

Good point, Irish. And he asserts unethical behavior on the part of ViewSat!

[eserwin]

Well there are still some buyers which are using them (VS boxes) for Amazonas 61W Southamerican Satellite, although I heard that they will change their encryption to Nag3 soon, so that will kill VS

[zeonbytes]

Sam you are entitled to your opinion but I think you are wrong. I think Viewsat MAXHD is an excellent unit and I will not get rid of mine in these uncertain times. Wait till the smoke clears, we will know for sure if Viewsat is history, IKS starts charging or if there is a stand alone bin. Everybody is free to choose what they like, I have like so many others, packed up the my MaxHD and and am now using NFusion but will no doubt pack up the Nfusion the day a stand alone fix comes out. There is no use in spreading news like this because
1) they are just speculations for now and
2) if it is true, no one is buying Viewsat right now anyways so why bother convincing people to sell theirs?. It is better to give people hope than to discourage them, it will make you happier, trust me.

How many people are gonna eat crow when VS comes out with a fix first?

hmmm... sold it over 70% of what I paid... not sure who got ripped off?

why I said, I sold it... cause I believe no N3 coming anytime soon AND VS is about to be part of history.

Huskred, are you suggesting users should still buy Viewsat now?

Well the truth is Viewsat is still been sold to unsuspecting newbies by dealers claiming fix will be released next week. I was at one of the dealers store & saw this with my own eyes.

[Huskred]

No, Sam, I'm not saying that; I don't think my comment implies that in any way.

All we've seen to date, in my opinion, is unfounded speculation as to VS's plans. I personally don't know whether they will come up with an N3 fix or fold.

I agree that it doesn't seem wise to buy their product now.

[sam008]

hmmm... sold it at 70% OFF what I paid... not sure who got ripped off?

why I said, I sold it... cause I believe no N3 coming anytime soon AND VS is about to be part of history.

[dhappadawg]

yeah bro you're doing the same thing that VS is doing if you're information is correct

[jjw0782]

No he's not doing the same thing. People are just afraid of the truth that there will not be an n3 fix. Too risky for dealers and coders. All that is left is iks. When the courts finish their judgements you will see viewsat will be liquidated and shutdown like coolsat.

US judges can't liquidate and shutdown manufacturing facilities or coders in foreign countries.
Viewsat isn't going anywhere...they're in Korea.

Maybe the story was second hand info.

I couldn't sleep at night selling a dead box to an unknowing newbie.
I come here to teach new members & lead them in the right direction.
It's not about deception or passing the buck.

[ldconfig]

No card hack no stand alone fix. Can NOT happen without it. And to those that disagree with this basic fact i strongly advise seeking mental help.
have a great day

[raray]

VS is being sued by the FBI and DN!!!!


Let's see what happens?

[jjw0782]

Yeah yeah just like freetech isn't coolsat you dont see coolsat online anymore do you?

[Seahawk]

I am not in agree with mr sam, i think he has lot of nightdreams when he go sleep thinking about viewsat, or may be he try to help to others makes of receivers dont you mr sam?
