Details are sketchy. But, yes, look for Blacklist to be limiting his messaging as blacklist - and instead to be resurrecting with another name for Viewsat.
Last month's trip to Germany is no coincidence with the viewsat bin release out of Germany.
Viewsat is obviously the better offer for BL at the moment. The only question remaining is, where will Pansat users fit into his plans? Will Pansat users still get support albeit later? Or will he cease 2 support Pansat completely in the near future.
Either way, it looks like viewsat is going to be the way to go for next while. His site does not, and has not hesitated in pointing you to viewsat - a strong indication that Pansat in no longer priority 1 for Blacklist.
blacklist went to germany nearly two months ago which was two weeks before the ECM was completed. Also if blacklist is joining the vsat team wouldn't there be a huge announcement prompting people to buy viewsat recievers. The viewsats being advertised on BL's site are being sold with a $40 mark-up which is just another way to put money in his pocket.
Maybe pansat does'nt want to negotiate with bl. Maybe they are looking or are hiring new compidant coders.maybe bl traitor and screwed pansat,then went to VS camp. Maybe thats why nobody's heard from him in months.Maybe codes are beyond his realm of coding? Either way he is having big/time trouble with everything including pr and updates.Public relations are a VERY IMPORTANT part of doing bussiness.There loss is everyone else's gain!
