That is very old news. If you posted that crap on a reputable site you would be the laughing stock of the year.

Stupid, Zulu. It is not old news. If you had been reading the posts a Ecoustics instead of having fun, you would have known, tat this guy Whitcomb was a ex employee of Sonicview and then to get rid of surplus he started only this February with prosonic.com and tried to sell of surplus stock.

Your friends FTABADASS and others were helping this effort of deceiving the members of Ecoustics.

Now you just stop trying to deceive the members at Ecoustics and stay outside of this discussion. You have been obnoxious for far too long.

Order on Motion for Preliminary Injunction filed March 29, 2010

The court has ruled that Sonicview is prohibited from designing, manufacturing, selling, distributing marketing etc, 8PSk Turbo Boards and the Ihub. Sonicview argued that third parties are responsible and that they should not be held accountable for their actions.


From the Whitcomb Injuction decision dated 25th april, 2011.

"Defendant Whitcomb is a former Sonicview employee. (Hagan Decl., 7;
Ex. 6 at 120:2;124:4.) At the time the Sonicview Order was entered,
Whitcomb was engaged in selling the Sonicview iHub on eBay. (Id., 6;
Ex. 5.) In an effort to evade the order, DISH Network alleges that
Whitcomb eventually began selling a ;re-packaged( P&A; iHub under the name ;Sonicview SV Lan; and ;New Link;
(P&A [Doc. 5-1], 4:27;5:2 (citing Jaczewski Decl. [Doc. 5-16], 4; and Hagan Decl., 3;5, Exs. 2;4).)
"

Since then the organization is trying to sell the IHubs under yet another name - SV LAN and now another new name Wizhub.

The simple fact is that there are already two injunctions against Sonicview Ihub and its cousins and offsprings. I would suggest that people refrain from buying this production.
