    ??? nowt to do VM, its ebays policy of selling an item that does what the SV does (connecting a device to a providers system), they made it illegal to sell such a device about 2 years ago, thats why its removed, there were folk selling the actual firmware (scumbags) they get removed also, anything to do with selling these boxs or firmware is not allowed on ebay, nothing to do with VM, although VM and UPC made complaints to ebay and pressed it with them, which resulted in their selling being prohibited,

    Knock on the door? talk about scaremongering
