What exactly have Air Nav done, post ST launch, to fix known bugs?

[Sun Worshipper]

It's all in the title.

I suppose I could also stretch the question out to say RB development.

Could you please only comment on known things, not speculation?

Thanks

[Anmer]

Fixed the "equatorial black hole".

[Bethsalem]

Other than that

Diddly-squat!

[Brian]

Changed the Beta URL for the Radarbox24.com map page!

[Bethsalem]

Brian, so they did.

I stand corrected!

[Anmer]

Strictly speaking that didn't "fix known bugs".

But probably diverted resources away from that task.

[Sun Worshipper]

That's what I thought.

So, is it now safe to say that Brandao is a liar?

I think it is!

[Anmer]

Rumblings in the camp?

"It's seems a long time ago now since we using ANRB had any progress going forward .There is a great deal to choose from out in the world today and the development  of the products and their ability to process data is on going almost at a weekly pace.
ANRB is a quality product but we seem to be being left behind,just my opinion and i'm sure ANRB development personal are on with it as I speak. "

I can picture the reply as I post.

I can picture the reply as I post. 

Bummer, I got the comma in the wrong place. 

"There are some great developments to come and we have been busy here creating them.

We thank you for your patience so far, not too long to hold on now We promise the wait is worth it. "

After nearly three years of waiting, it should be amazing.  But I won't hold my breath.

The same old tired rhetoric from AirNav.

Roughly translated their statement reads as,

"Thank you for asking stupid questions which we have no intention of giving proper answers to. The great development is that we're totally dumping RadarBox Mk1 as there's no more money to be made on it, and we're throwing all Brandao's pilot's salary into getting our RadarBox24 up and running, because we might make a bit of cash from that. Now run along and stop bothering us."

The same old tired rhetoric from AirNav.

Why does everyone pussyfoot around here?  It aint rhetoric, it's LIES, pure and simple!

[Anmer]

Even long term AirNav forum members are having dounts:

"I have also given up waiting. Every bit of software I own has had some update in the last year, except ANRB. Not even minor bug fixes appear."

There's more chance of the Kinetic forum coming back online before we see a new RadarBox release.

[Anmer]

Just been following an exchange between AirNav customer "Brian" and AirNav sycophant "PJM" on another forum where PJM is claiming that the latest RadarBox software release was February 2010.

For the record AirNav RadarBox 2010 - 3.13 Beta was released on December 03, 2009.

http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=3930.msg39544#msg39544

AirNav Radarbox 2010 - 3.13 was released on December 10, 2009.

http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=3962.msg39999#msg39999

What was "released" in February 2010 was the option to pay extra to enable 3D graphics in the existing RadarBox 2010 - 3.13 software.

In all other respects, bugs and all, RadarBox 2010 - 3.13 is the latest software upgrade.

That's 2 years, 7 months ago!

Even the most loyal followers are now having doubts:

"Lost track of the number of times this type of thread has been posted, and then dwindled away with maybe one or two meagre responses from AirNav.

Put it this way, if my box died for whatever reason (God forbid!), I'd be looking at competitor products in line with developments in their portfolio, and the progress they'd made in the past four years before I purchased anything new.

I could forgive the lack of immediate progress if we had a better line of feedback on bug-fixes and/or new developments.

No doubt the recent activity on this thread will produce another post telling us to be patient and that we will be amazed at what is in store in the near future.....................................

I suppose, being pragmatic, my box does what I want it to, but being realistic, it could do a whole lot more?"

I'm an AirNav customer but my RadarBox sits on the shelf unused.  I post these quotes here as I'm not allowed to post on the AirNav forum.  Why?  Because AirNav claims I'm a Kinetic employee (which I definitely am not) and have complained in the past.   

[Anmer]

Even Tarbat's patience is wearing thin:

"Agreed.  Airnav really owe us an explanation.  I went to a lot of time and effort last year to compile a list of bugs, prioritise them, take feedback, etc. as requested by Airnav.  See http://www.airnavsystems.com/forum/index.php?topic=6532.msg73955#msg73955

I do think they now owe us an explanation as to:

1. Which of the bugs will be fixed in v4.04, and when can we expect delivery of v4.04 into beta-testing.
2. Which bugs will have to wait until Radarbox 5 to be fixed.

At the moment it seems like I wasted all my time and effort compiling the list of bugs for Airnav."

And AirNav's response?

Total silence.  Must be taking a leaf out of Kinetic's book?
