Ready to race!
So I have been anticipating VCDS Mobile for a while now, and signed up for news. Yesterday I receive this email:
______________________
The HEX-NET WiFi interface will be available for sale in the US on Monday, February 10, 2014. *There will be two versions of the product:
* An Enthusiast Version, which will work with a maximum of 10 different cars (VINs), at the introductory price of $399: http://store.ross-tech.com/shop/VCHN_10.html
* A Professional Version, which will work with an unlimited number of cars, at the introductory price of $499: http://store.ross-tech.com/shop/VCHN.html
Both versions have VCDS-Mobile on board, bringing dealer-level diagnostics to most modern mobile devices without the need to install any software on the device, and of course they will also work with VCDS running on a Windows PC.
This Beta release of the HEX-NET WiFi interface and VCDS-Mobile product will be sold only in the US and delivered only to US addresses. *Sales will be limited to a small number of units per day initially.
Upgrades and sales to the rest of the world will not be offered at the start. *At the conclusion of our Beta period, we will remove the daily limits, open sales to the rest of the world, and institute our upgrade program. We do not know when that will happen. The date will be determined by the success of the Beta program.

Now I figured it would be about $400, but that much for a 10 VIN model, and that is just a pre-release price? Damn. Guess I won't be buying one after all...
