@TELE-HO

[freeheeler]

WTF, no, never even, wishes will prosper, wishes is a divergent series,

only when a wish is fulfilled… the next comes… and the next…
ambit users rest on their one wish and while they wait they become unambitious, that’s good for suunto

dimitrios said in another thread we’ll have an update in october… let’s see

If the Ambit3 finally gets support, I will stop warning others that they should think twice if they want to buy a watch which is officially listed on the web page of the company (and not a long time discontinued one) but has a high chance of having its functionalities crippled. I wouldn’t care if we would talk about 50 bucks only, but this is not the case for a product with this price tag and no statement of the company of discontinuing it.

And based on what I have seen on reddit, I am not the only concerned customer who don’t like the approach:

There is a clear difference in having a wish fulfilled or having existing functionalities removed from a product. We are talking about the second one here. The watch offers the functionalities, the current software solution also does, the new one doesn’t.

I don’t want new features, I just want the existing ones.

Just like healthy men has thousand wishes and sick ones only one…so the Spartan and S5,9 users have thousand wishes and Ambit ones only one
…myself being an exception…for my S9B I wish only POI/Waypoints and structured intervals

[Saketo Nemo]

@morskilav thousand wishes? and wich ones?
I’m luckier than you: I wish only POIs/waypoints and christmas, this year, comes in advance

really? I did not understand. I think I’ve never read it before

[zhang965]

@TELE-HO
which Christmas? 3019?

[freeheeler]

@zhang965
patience is not my strength, christmas 2018

I just bought an Ambit3 Peak, and am also like many others frustrated about how it is completely useless with the new Suunto app because it cannot sync/import routes to the watch. Such a basic and important feature. And if the old services/apps are eliminated by Suunto then it will truly be a useless paperweight.

@whiteelephant
wait for the rumored november news

[whiteelephant]

@TELE-HO Ok thanks, I’ll wait and see. At this point I don’t have much faith but I’ll wait and see what the news brings.

[freeheeler]

@whiteelephant
in europe you can’t sell a product and make it obsolete 6months later

look for the recent thread “ambit2 spell it out for me”

[whiteelephant]

@TELE-HO Thank you, yes I found that thread just now reading through the forum, still, its still a worry if they support it for the minimum time and then abandon it. Many old GPS orientated devices like ancient Tom-toms for example still work 100% fine now eventhough they’re way older, as with many other devices in the world. Hopefully all isn’t lost

@whiteelephant
i strongly believe ambit will be supported for some more years.
It has bluetooth connection and is already partly integrated in SA.
If course newer watches will have priority in SA development. I think as soon as SA has reached a certain stage ambit will also be supported.
That’s why I only bought a new A3PS in June and I will keep it.

[whiteelephant]

@TELE-HO So is this new "Staged Software Release 2.9.42 " “ONLY FOR S3, S5 AND S9” update the same update you were talking about?
