Re: non-voluntary durability test

Must’ve been a real dumb question I asked there :| No, definitely not. It's just a joke. The "Siemens air hook" seems to be only a very special German design (rather a euphemism for the fact that a failed design can only be justified by an impossible component). Perhaps at the time of its...

Just a quick note to thank SwissMicros team (well, Mickael Steinmann in fact) who has quickly cancelled my order after I ask him to, and refunded me immediately, just because I forgot to use the free shipping code when I ordered the replacement foil (Yes, I am a drag... it is not like it is not wri...

Re: Can I presume the DM42 is no longer supported?

So many posts, a simple question, but unfortunately no resilient, clear answers. It is impressive to see the energy with which assumptions are made here about the future behavior of Swissmicros.

You could also try to modify the USB plug a little for much better and stable connection,
