Did anybody know anything about it back then or has this only just been secretly put on APR's site?

Who cares,  :indifferent:

 It should be a battle for technical development and excellence and ease of application. Instead we pay for Coronation street V Eastenders.  :sad1:

It's not any sort of secret, it's been around for a long time.

Never knew about the lawsuit but most people knew that Revo was set up by ex APR employees, they are gonna have a hard time proving most of that case as at the end of the day if Guy A makes adjustments to VW's software and guy B comes along and does the same are they both not tampering with VW's protected property  :happy2:

Copying hardware is a tad naughty but its rife in the world anyway, copying software and making a few subtle changes is also rife, wonder what the outcome was, chances are that as Revo are still going strong and APR are aggresively marketing Revo's customers, to me it seems like they (APR) lost and are going hard at it in UK for their revenge  :grin:
