Hi Everyone,
It has been a while since updating once again!
We have been busy in the background with new products, Videolinks, New V4 firmware for modems with forwarding and improved profiles for Asynchronous modes for large networks. Look out for more announcements for those!
In the meantime, it has been 2 years since we have reviewed our pricing of products and due to component cost increases and manufacturing cost increases we will need to increase costs of most of our products by 6% on the 1st of October, 2024. Cubepilot hardware pricing is already current and will not be affected by this increase.
We are working hard to keep our products at a good value point, and are able to keep the increase less than the bi-annual inflation rate for Australia which was just under 8%.
As always, we thank you for your ongoing support and custom, and look forward to working with you on your new and existing projects!
With best regards,
Seppo Saario
