This is not something that I would have purchased for myself as it has far more features than a cupping scale needs (it has a bunch of modes geared toward timing and weighing espresso and manual pour over), but I also didn't have to pay for it since it was a sponsor gift connected to some teaching work.
@gnomon I have source code at least (for which derivatives would be legally dubious to distribute), but yeah, they did a lot of utterly pointless work on the software side where they would have had a better product by not trying to have a moat. It's a common problem with hardware companies when they fail to realize that nobody wants them to be a software company.
@neal I am annoyed too, those were such short-sighted decisions. But I didn't know the published BT spec docs were wrong! That's worse than not having them at all!
