John, While I cannot speak for Motorola, it is clear that Motorola's first priority is to protect the copyright of current software. On one programming-oriented site, there is no end of idiots who post messages like, "Can anyone send me a copy of the latest software for the XTS5000?" And there are idiots who respond with something like, "Contact me off-list," or "Check your PM." I doubt that Motorola will send out the legal beagles to collar someone who offers RSS for the SP50 or GM300, but I think that anyone who openly offers pirate RSS or CPS that is still being licensed and sold is asking for serious trouble. Big time.

Ran across this website.... http://www.hampedia.net/motorola/mt-1000.php <http://www.hampedia.net/motorola/mt-1000.php> Found out it has the RSS to the Motorola MT1000. And me being the cautious guy to never get into legal crap with the big boys as I know how Motorola's Software License Agreement is big and scary...... Is this site legitimate or is this site just asking for trouble by posting RSS for the general public? Thoughts? Comments? Should I stay away from these people? Thanks!
