my sentiments exactly not only not enough updates but no where near enough quality.....

  to be honest the autocom is almost as good with wurth wow software..

for less than $100!!!!!!!!

My autocom cost me £600 a year for updates and does not time out , also they have introduced haynes pro data if you want it from about £450 to £600

Yes I do agree $1200 is a lot off money they have to think about it...........I rather don't update it for a year or two and than buy new tool and get one year free updates.............its more cheaper that way than paying $1200 for one year updates........

 Seems to me the business model is a little strange when it comes to automotive scanner software updates and for that matter anything related to automotive software. I find it strange that I buy a hardware product that has software that can be buggy and is fixed with periodic updates to make it function correctly but am limited to only one year of this. I understand that they need to sell software updates to customers  for newer year vehicles. I would think if I bought a scanner in 2015 I should be entitled to any software tweak or enhancement for all years up to the year of my last software purchase. If Microsoft or Apple computers followed this business model they would be out of business. I am all for paying for additional years i.e. Adding 2017 cars or a new manufacturer but having to pay $1200 a year just to get the software I have to function at 100% is unreasonable. If anyone else agrees with me please say so below.
