chessnut air: manufacturing batch numbers info... are there bad batches?

Sort:
Bunky777

I am looking at a used Chessnut air. They claim intermittent connectivity problems and want to sell.  I am hoping it can be overcome OR IS IT always going to be a bad machine?

Are the early batches flawed or was it just software glitches that have been fixed?

What should I be aware of with this machine?  Are there batch numbers on the serial number to look out for?

Does it connect to a windows desktop computer?

Should I pay more for new and no risk?

Disclaimer:: I don't own one but I believe that you can connect it to windows using one of Grahams drivers....

Much appreciated advice and hope. I will contact them and let them know, hopefully they'll still want to sell.
